If none of the above works the heat transfer paste may be old and dried out and would be good to replace it. (After a certain amount of heat cycles it dries out and doesn't work as well) I work on computers doing this stuff. HTTP://WWW.h3nrygocrazy.infoI almost positive that's what the deal is with mine. It's about 5-6 years old. Not to derail the thread, but I had to go to power options and set the power of the CPU down from 100% to around 70%--- just to keep it from shutting down. I'm almost positive it's the thermal paste. I took my laptop apart completely and it looked a little crusty. Haha--- the PC guy I took it to couldn't even figure that out---he had it for a month, but didn't charge me. How hard is it to reapply the thermal paste? Anyway back on topic.. I just applied thermal compound (Arctic Silver 5) to my CPU, and maxed my CPU out at 100%. I've watched a few Youtube videos and have been online for a good 30 minutes at full power, it hasn't shutdown....yet. Normally at max it would've shut down by now without the fresh compound--- so hopefully this works out.  |

Ordered some more parts for it. Thinking about changing grips, too, although I'm not sure how easy it is or how to go about it.

Mine just has the cigarette lighter adapter. It was $25-30. The adapter is cheap on mine--- smacked it around a few times and fell apart. I put it back together. It came with a few sockets, but they didn't fit my variator nut. I went and bought some sockets at the store.
Overall it gets the job done and I haven't stripped either of the shafts threads. It's not my top priority to get a better one yet, but if it takes a dump then I might.

I bought an emergency impact at Wallyworld and it performs the same way as yours does. With mine, I usually hit it about 5 times, but I'm sure ours are different. I've never used a torque wrench on either pully...yet. Maybe one day I'll buy or use some sort of holder.

That's cool. Seems as if the majority of people, after replacing the stock rollers, are either at 6g or under. I hear 5g all the time---especially with your body weight.
It's good to hear you're happy with them. I had 7g Dr. Pulleys(49cc), but you weigh about 100lbs more than I do. I'll never put anything less than 6g in my scoot. Every time I did my scoot ran slower.
With higher displacement, I can run 8g easily.

I might go see Man of Steel when it comes out.

I've come to a conclusion. If a site doesn't have specs for a part, I won't buy--- unless I know first hand that it's worthy of buying.

Never bought from them. A LOT of look-alike sites out there, too. Very few sites I buy from.

If you truly want to quit, you need to find motivation too. Evidently, me laying in my bed with cancer isn't enough to quit smoking, but going back to jail for something stupid with drinking was.  |

Dom--- take it day by day. Wow, I quit drinking for 1 1/2 years, and it wasn't easy. I had to take classes for it, and, it kinda helped. It's hard to do when everyone is in your face with it, and it's in nearly every store. Same with smoking.

I can't believe odometers are still an ongoing issue. My 2005 scooter is over 10 mph off at top speed.
