If you have ever driven in California, where this is legal, it freaks the living feces out of you.  Those guys just don't cautiously stroll by the cars, they fly past them sometimes over taking at around 30-40 mph faster than the traffic.  They even have signs telling you to double check before you change lanes.  Every time I'm there for business I just never cross the lanes in fear I will hit one. 

They always leave looking for better, but are always disappointed!

Thanks Zombie!  Coming from a prestigious man like you it means a lot!

I know this is a little late, and not sure if you have done it already.  But I did the rear ones and am working on getting the front ones to work as well.  Looking at it, would just need to extend the wires down to the new area, put a new bulb mount assembly in, and will be good to go!

Hey Zombie!

Do you by chance have a pic of what the tires look like on your ride, good sir?  Mainly just trying to get an idea of what the bigger tire looks like once installed so I have a better idea of what I want the bike to look like.  It would be greatly appreciated!  I will be doing a before and after in a little bit once I get all the parts for my scoot in!

Hey Guys,

So finally got some nice weather here in Milwaukee (above 50 & snow is finally all gone) and I got the old scoot up and running.  So now it's time to get it into ridable condition so when the really nice weather hits I can ride more often.

The main thing is, I need a new front tire.  I did as much research on this forum as I could find in terms of tires and tire sizes.  I see a lot of people like the Avon Viper but I am not one of that cleaner look. I was thinking something more along these...

Anyone run tires similar to these?  I want something with a little more "meat" to them considering this past winter was an absolute hell on our roads. 

Also, I am really foreign on the tire sizes.  I understand what the numbers mean.  The tires I currently have on there are 110/70-12 for the front and 120/70-12 for the rears.  My question is, could I go up 10mm on the section width without having to change the rim? 

Has anyone also tried putting a tire on there with a higher aspect ratio than the stock 70? Or does changing the section width give you enough of increase to risk rubbing?

Hey Guys,

Just thought I would share with you a pretty fun experience I had this weekend riding around Milwaukee.  This weekend was the 110th anniversary of Harley Davidson and has a huge turn out for Harley riders from all over the world.  They are literally everywhere around the greater Milwaukee area.  Well I was in a suburb (Wauwatosa for anyone familiar with the area) and came to a stop light.  Saw in my mirror some Harley riders coming upon me and the lead guy stopped next to me and started looking at me.  I thought...Oh great...Gonna start giving me sh** for being on my little 50cc sparkly purple moped.  But he started actually complimenting me about it and talking.  He asked me where I was going and I said just around.  He asked if I wanted to join them.  I said "Are you f'ing with me?" He said no, and that they were from Colorado and this was their first time here and wanted to see the area if I could help show them around.  So I said sure.  The fun part was seeing a guy on a purple moped riding with 13 other Harley riders through the streets.  We pulled into a parking lot and they all took turns buzzing around on it in the lot and were surprised how much power that little thing had for a 50cc.  I had a blast the whole time and enjoyed seeing the looks on peoples faces in the street with me in the lead of these guys.  They were all cool people and it was quite the experience.  Thought you guys would all like to hear about that and possibly share some similar experiences of your own!
