Brent indeed has a very good forum and is a welcome member here too along with being on the other sites Alley mentioned.
Him and I chat with each other every now and then and he is a great guy and scooter man too. Tell him JR said Hi.
I don't pay any more attention to the term politically incorrect as I do the politicians when it comes to music or any opinions about it.
JR
I will do that man! Yall stay safe its cold out there! |

Nope i speak for myself notice the "I" at the beginning of my statement... Its not very "polite" to force others to listen to a song just because you like it.  Nonetheless thank you for turning off the music.  |

Im glad im not the only one that can't stand this crap. It was a good song the first couple of times but damn man i want to learn about my scooter that means reading all the old threads of others problems and what they did to fix it. I DO NOT WANT CHRISTMAS MUSIC ON A SCOOTER SITE!!!!! Granted if it was only on the christmas song thread i would not mind at all but every thread in general scooter board is just too much!!!!!!  |

But at this very moment it is only playing for me on this thread on this board.
What browser are you using? may want to clear out the temp internet files and restart your computer if it is playing on every single thread?
JR
Yeah, it's playing only in this thread for me as well now... I'm using chrome... Perhaps my cookies were screwed up or something.... Yesterday when I logged in I had like 8 tabs open and at first I couldn't figure out what window/tab it was coming from.... It was pretty funny actually... Anyhow, it seems to be working fine now  The nice thing about Chrome is you can look at the open tabs the one playing a sound will have a little speaker icon next to the x to close the tab. Also i have to admit this song is getting old quick we should have an option to turn it off and not have to pause OUR music so telling someone to just turn there sound down/off isn't an option! I would also like to point out that this song is playing on all threads in the General Scooter section i wouldn't mind if it was just this thread! XD |

Lets tell it like it is, IF the thiefs are professional there is nothing you can do to stop them the only thing you can do is make it take longer. But professionals will usually just pick it up and put it in back of a truck and drive away takes only a couple of minutes. Idiots will tear wires apart and whatever to get it to start so they can ride it away. Those are the idiots that some cutoffs will work with. Two or 3 small switchs A. 1 a switch to the Kill wire plug on the CDI B. 2 a switch in between the motor to frame ground wire, without a ground from the motor to frame NO SPARK C. 3 a switch to cut off juice from the battery to the front of the scoot. The best one is motor to frame interrupted ground(no spark), not many are that smart. The killswitch they can pull the wire off the cdi, the 12volts to the front they would need to bypass and have a long enough wire to hook to the battery and to the front black feed wire(takes to long but can be done). Well thats the thing i saw the dude on my security cam i live in the boonies so you know everyone here. It was a so called "friend" that has wanted my scooter since the day i got it im not going to say anything about it but the next time he comes over im going to play the tape then knock him into next week. I just want to see his face when he finds out i know it was him thats worth 50 bux all day long! I like the switch for the engine to frame ground but what about something like a remote relay like the Acura has. Hide it under all the plastic and hit the remote no start until you turn the relay back on. |

not the kill switch, i mean the ignition bypass switch, and yeah if i was going to steal it i would look for a killswitch also. you could always remove the kickstart temporarily and remove the battery whenever your not riding it Well that is VERY temporary and until i can get a new ignition switch Scoot comes into the living room at night! The single life isnt so bad lol i can spend my money on fast cars and neat little scooters lmao! |

Okay thats not a problem at all. My next question what wire is the kill switch running to i would like to mount a hidden switch so when the next person tries to steal my scoot it won't start for them! If you have AC CDI you can locate here: You can do the same thing with a DC CDI, just put a hidden switch on on the #5 PIN... Afterall, your scoot will not run without power to the CDI. Very nice thanks man! Im really glad i found this place! My scoot has almost 5k miles its about time for some go fast parts. Im used to my 87 Acura Legend with a turbo 2.7 V6 if i can make that happen im sure i can make scoot go faster too lol. |

This is a very interesting thread indeed! Have you had a chance to use the vacuum gauge on the road with a load?

Yea no corn feed here i have a few stations that sell 100% gas about a mile from me oddly enough they are also about the same price as the stations that sell that  % junk. My Gmw was forced to use some corn fed gas once and i could really tell she didn't like it one bit. Hard to start very sluggish off the line with 30Mph the absolute max she could run... Needless to say the rest of that tank was drained and good fuel replaced it. |
