yea Alley it was prety warm before i ventted it going out today for a ride and see if it helps on it with it being enclosed it sure was holding in the heat didnt drill anywhere towards the front of the cover thought it may hinder the airflow thru the case?? well its a learning curve or trial and error alot of times doing mods

if people drive their scoots into water deep enough to make the clutch slip need to think about sealing off the engine really good and running the air filter up the side of the bike, maybe to the top of the handle bars, that way with the snorkel intake they can use their scooter as a jet ski, besides, who would get a scooter just to ride on the road? sheesh...

Nope. i take the CVT cover off at least once a month and inspect/clean it out usually not too dirty. its dusty here where i live at plus i'm pretty "anal" about maintence and the holes i drilled were with a 7/8 hole saw (take the cover off to drill it) the front of the cover i left alone and it still gets warm there but i'm not going to drill it out i dont think
