Pitbull moped

A couple of shots of my "island hopper" . She runs strong and solid. I bored out the original 49cc to a 80cc with a 3 stage racing clutch and gearing. Ranging from 69=70 mph now. Getting close to 100 miles on a full tank $3.00 tops off the tank.

I doubt it. This Ruckus appears to run and not leak fluids.

Lol damn 70 mph on that thing looks dangerous! I was looking into a cheaper way for around town and to keep the miles off the fit. Problem is I need the space and need to use the freeway around here. Santa Barbara surface streets are full of tourist who are lost.

Hey Dave, thanks and you're exactly right! 65+ mph on this thing is dangerous... I only do it when racing on a straight stretch of the track... We don't have the best of roads here either unfortunately so I ride slow just like I do in the Fit...lol

Little more shiny things

A couple updates like chromed handle bar grips, oem rims, belt cover that I had triple chrome dipped in Cali, removed all stock lighting and installed Mirshin square faced headlights, mini chrome Harley Davidson chopper turn sigs and tail light, side marker lights, high backflow/performance manifold and muffler, chrome kick stand and low pro mirrors. Chrome front forks with Sickspeed dress up bolts throughout. 8.1.gearing, re-wired -custom- electrical harness to name a few things so far.
Waiting on my engine and engine mounts to do engine swap with a 150cc bored to 180cc.

Nice work Vinny! I expect nothing less from you and Big Mike. Not surprised anymore but still in awe. ;-) Now you need more velvet rope and extra poles to cordon that off along with your Fit!

Will do vtecfit1, it's been kicked up a notch by the way. I went ahead and added the 100cc Big Bore kit with a bigger head but I need more power even though I rarely use it!!! =)
