Ok guys time for another mod
« on: October 30, 2010, 01:29:48 PM »

Modding a scooter is a beatiful thing!

Take this with a grain of salt considering my experience is with the agility 50 but...

What I hear is if you go too bright you can blow the fuse, damage the wiring or, in a serious case, burn out the plug and melt the clear lens.

worst case scenerio for sure but I've still heard of it happening.
Im usually on a bicycle, so for me, this thing is hauling ass!

I always ride with my BIG headlight on. I adjusted the direction of the lights downwards so not to blind oncoming traffic.
It's eeasy and cheap!  :D
