Hi everyone ! Nope I'm still alive and kicking here in Boise!! I apologize for not keeping up as I previously had many century's ago. Things have been getting a bit busy here from time to time. The Stella 2T with the 200cc engine I built still runs for the moment even tho I have not spent much time riding on it in the last year or so. More will come in more posts. I'm still pretty much active with my ham radio stuff right now especially during the summer months. Current issues I am dealing with on the scoot is primarily electrical. In the next couple of weeks I am looking @ getting a replacement wiring harness for it. I've been having issues with the battery keeping charged. Add 2 different new voltage regulators and stator . This has been sort of a headache for me and has kept me from riding as much as I would have liked. The engine runs strong still . The only real options I have at the moment is to rewire the scoot as a p series with no electric start but with support for a battery. I'll keep the forum posted as things move along. The headlight and taillight still work but no signals due to the electrical issues. AS far as the gy6 parts, I do have them still but it may take a day or two to dig them out. My closet is packed full to the top of it. Laptop parts have taken over my apartment. Just over a year ago I moved to a smaller apartment and space is @ a premium. Ok I have bored you all enough! Bug U later ! will c.

Ack Up late ! On a personal note I do miss Rich. He was a 1 of a kind guy whom hopefully is in a better place. His phone calls with computer related questions I miss the most. The scooting weather here hasn't exactly been the greatest. Last night was t-storms. I finally restarted the scoot after not running it for close to 2 weeks. It took only 3 kicks to get it going with choke. That's been the usual for it since the engine was built unless its flooded . Eventually the carb is on the list to be replaced. Here in Idaho our vehicle and motorcycle license fee's went up . $45 for registering just the scoot this year. My car tags were well over $75 for 1 year. Up $25 from the year before the new fee's kicked in. It's supposed to pay for the needed road repairs and bridges that need fixed or replaced. OK done qvetching. Hope all is doing ok . Bug U later ! will
