Agility 50 / Re: engine decompression tube

Lol...the filter isn't weather tight, just the configuration...if any water gets past the filter it doesn't make it into the intake tube to the carb, there's a stock drainage hole at the back of the airbox for excess water...its just as safe as a stock configuration in the rain but with better airflow with the removed stock air filter

The tire was on the bike when i bought it, last summer and almost 5k miles ago...i just noticed this within the past month or so...I've already resigned myself to getting a new tire, just hope there isn't a bigger issue.

Agility 50 / Rear Tire Uneven Wear
« on: March 21, 2013, 07:51:54 PM »
Lately I've noticed some pretty significant uneven wear on my rear tire...as you're looking at the tire from the rear of the bike from center tread to the inside edge is wearing pretty quickly...on the inside edge there is also some significant chopping...is this an alignment issue?...how do i adjust the rear tire alignment?...or could this be pointing to a bigger issue like bad wheel bearing or axle issue?

I bought the PCV available at scrappydog.com...think it was like 10$...tried it out and my scoot was boggy from idle to about 25 MPH...then it wouldn't accelerate any further...the stock setup under the airbox is filled with a yellowish foam material and has a small vent hole right under the carb intake...can't seem to figure out how to eliminate that stock valve under the airbox without sacrificing performance...thinking it might have something to do with the intake air pressure generated from feeding the carb might be what makes that stock valve function

On a side note, i came up with a compromise for better airflow...i removed the stock air filter and intake snorkel and added a pod filter where the intake snorkel mounted to the airbox...nice deep resonating sound and weather tight

Agility 50 / Re: I need a Blinker
« on: March 21, 2013, 05:08:05 AM »
I ditched mine and replaced with LED pods from AutoZone...gotem for around 7$ ea...easy 2 wire installation...only notable side effect was a faster blinker rate caused by the lower resistance of the LED bulb...you can get blinker modules for LED lights to restore the timing of the flash
