Stripped the CVT: A combination of a damn good clean, a bit of sanding, a new Mitsuboshi belt and installing the 6x 25x22x17g Dr Pulleys have made it feel quicker than it's ever been! 

If you want to be incrementally better: Be competitive. If you want to be exponentially better: Be cooperative.

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
Funkycowie got me interested in using some vinyl wrap i had in the shed, as i needed to repaint the rear peg assembly, so had a go today, fiddly as odd shape, not perfect but will do for this year, then added Gilera graphics to underside of belly pan, both sides for when im cranking over,
and put one on front mudguard as well. I sprayed the crankcase cover black last year to match the wheels as silver is no longer the central colour, i was thinking to vinyl wrap that but the shape is near impossible, so i might find a company to do that.. well thats it for now... safe riding guys and galls










I cant seem to remember.. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

The new 26x13-17.5g 8x rollers came super quick within 24 hours on normal 1st class post from LLexeter. Fitted and back on the road with a bit better response.

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
had the back lower mudguard off as the support arm thats hidden needed Hammerite Black Direct To Rust Satin Paint on it... also did the support arm for the rear brake caliper, and the hidden tubing that the engine is held in with.. and the side stand and main stand, as well

Topped up the oil as it now uses oil rather than produces it since the thermostat was changed. Noticed an oil drip from around the oil filter, hmmm, I'll be doing a full oil & filter change in the next couple of weeks so I'll make sure the new one seats properly.

Rode it to work and used the tunnel bag for the first time since I got it last year. No more backpack for me. 
Tomorrow I'm fitting the Akra pipe though. Very excited!
