Hi all.
I have recently bought a TGB Xrace 150 and would like to do a few mods to it, mainly just to improve appearance - I'm not really looking to spend $ for more power. Anyway I have several questions in regards to this.
So far I'm thinking of adding:
- Tinted flyscreen
- Backrest
- Fender Eliminator
- Exhaust
Can anyone recommend any other aesthetic upgrades I could make?
In regards to the fender eliminator, I can not find any online that are listed as specifically compatible with the TGB Xrace 150, so how am I able to purchase one that I know is appropriate? I went in to a local scooter mechanic shop today and the mechanic told me there's no way of buying one and I'd have to make one myself.
In regards to the exhaust, there are also none that I can find online that are listed as specifically compatible with the TGB Xrace 150, so I have been looking for exhausts listed as being compatible with a GY6 150cc scooter. I showed a couple of them to the mechanic today that could be purchased from the USA (I am in Australia) and he told me they wouldn't be compatible with my bike as they are American and that I should buy an Australian exhaust. He also said that any custom exhaust added would reduce the power and I would have to spend an additional $1500 to have it all tuned etc. Does this all sound right? The guy came across as a bit of a dick so I am not sure how much I trust him.
I also read that the TGB Xrace 150 is basically a rebranded TGB 303rs, does this mean that any part or accessory purchased for a 303rs will be compatible with the Xrace 150?
Sorry for the long post and all the questions, but any help would be very much appreciated!
