Well the seller I got it from will only sell the whole set and I don't want to end up buying a muffler that doesn't fit the header so I think im gunna see if I can cut it open and weld the broken piece back and repack it

Oh no don't get me wrong I always want all my stuff in top working order. I didn't explain my question correctly. What I ment was will it be ok you ride a few times before the new one comes. It's my work transportation and my wife needs the car this weekend. I just want to be reassured that I'm not going to do irreversible damage from a few rides.

As the subject says, something that holds the packing in place seems to have come loose now it's spraying white fuzz whenever i twist the throttle. Obviously I need to replace it, but for the meantime will it be ok to ride?

Removed the emissions finally, gave up on getting to fix the popping, turns out there must have been a vacuum leak because there is no longer any popping! Sure did alot of pointless carb tuning along the way but atleast it was good practice

I think the Asians got us beat on personalizing their scooters. That is pure scooter porn

Alright guys so I finally got around to doing the pair removal with block off plate, I followed this video My question is he puts a cap on the second intake port,but never talks about where the rest of the line goes. Here's what i mean: The line that is circled in orange is what I'm referring to. I've already removed the line that goes to the canisters, but im unsure about this other line that goes to a seperate canister that I'm guessing goes to the gas tank. What is this, do I need this? Should I get rid of the splitter and run a straight line to the canister or just get rid of the line all together

Im 6'2 185lbs and I ride my taotao powermax 150 to work about a 12 mile trip each way and it tops out around 58mph. All I've done is replace exhaust and put a uni on, been running strong for a year and a half now.

Funny, I saw this video a few months ago and wanted to share it on here but couldn't find it again. How do they have their scooters setup that they can wheelie like that

Well before you go pouring all the money into it you might just want to try switching out the rollers, you can probably achieve what you are looking for right there.

Im not particularity familiar with that style, but have you tried first removing the seat bucket? You should be able to access it from the top

I have a TaoTao powermax 150 The taotao website lists tire size as 120/70/12 But my stock tires say 3.50 x 12 Is there a difference? What are the range of sizes my rim can support? Ive seen a few sets that come with a 120/70 front and a 130/70 rear,do these fit? Also I plan on having the local shop put them on for me, my question is do I get tube or tubeless tires and are all rims able to go tubeless?
