Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
you have made the power band starting lower revs, so your punch is from initial opening throttle, so its not as restricted as before, so you can only tell from the pick up of speed which will be constant, the noise may well be from the sprint filter grunt, it was on the nexus 500
I cant seem to remember.. I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
After 3 weeks waiting for "fast & free delivery" of my Hiflo air filter from a clown operation on Eblag they finally refunded, strangely they now list at £99.90 not £9.90
My local Hiflo dealer could not supply one as his supplier does not carry them !! no K&N option so OEM Suzuki @ £30+ it is then
Tried a M&P/Busters one before and they are shite , had to fit it with a hammer even covered with Castrol rubber grease
Both wheels now painted up and fitted, just waiting for the 12 yr old at Fowlers parts to know the difference between a blove box and fuse cover

Just bikes for me, oh and the odd car

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
Did a lunch time special again... quickly fitted front clear indicator lenses (I got them from Liam, God bless him
). I will do the back lights when I am doing the tail tidy mod... may be on Saturday.
Still no Dr Pulley
German post is on strike
BTW, anyone has any experience on LED bulbs? rear light and indicator ones...

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
i fitted led indicators to the nexus 500 you will need a resistor inline or they will flash double speed, not sure if they do a tail tidy led light assembly for yours lad, suppose they do, your normal bulbs are the brightest so id leave them alone,
sorry will have a look, but cant remember if yours is the mk2 or 3
