Unfortunatly gentiles don't seem to see whats truely at stake here ! Iran hates Israel and all Jew's no matter where we are at !! Please also note ,the arabs had a chance for a seperate coexisting arab "Palistinian" state before Israel came into being . .They refused !! Its the truth ! Jews have never left home. There has always been a Jewish presence over the the milleniums that have come and gone. Jersualem is and always has been the capital for Israel past, present and future . This actual fact goes back over 2000+ years ( King David and Solomon ) . Question ? How would you like it if someone put a new temple either above or on your most holiest site ??

This is my own view and if you don't like it , Tough s* !! I am fed up with the way that Obama has been treating Israel ince he came into office !! Fact : Israel is the only real true democracy the middle east has. Israelis are very diverse (I have seen this up close in person) . They elect their own govt ! Does Egypt , Syria , JOrdan Iran elect their gov't offcials ? Hell No ! We need to support Israel for who it is and what it stands for. Arabs are always whining or crying all the time about what Israel does when its very priciples are threatened and when they take action to protect it's citizens from rocket's being launched (supplied by their good buddys Iran) into Israel itself. Why is it that Israel is always forced to give up much much more than another country would have to in a simmilar situation? 6000+ for just 1 captured or for the body of 1 killed Israeli oldier Is that truely fair Get real !! We need a govt here in the USA that fully supports Israel 1000% with no hesitation, unlike what OBama keeps doing and not cast it off like a beggar, or pariah like Obama's admin keeps doing , over and over and over again !! The Bull S#$% has to stop now !!! Why is it that Israel is the only one who is willing to take Irans nuclear ambitions head on and do something about it now ? Where is the US support ? America has capabilitys much greater than Israel has, to properly deal with the Iranian nuclear bomb threat . Obama is continuing to drag his d#%^ feet on dealing with Iran. Listen carefully . If Iran gets the bomb like they are going to get if we don't do something about now , we all are in extremly serious trouble !!!! It would only be days or months till Islamic Jihad , Hezbollah and other fringe Muslim terrorist groups get it from their good buddys in Iran and use it on us and our children !! Think about it !! Is this what we want to happen ? I sure as hell don't !! Wasn't the 9-11 attacks enough of a wake up call for us ?? Apparently not if Obama keeps ignoring the warning sighns like he keeps getting !!!

Guys and Gals : Just a safe warning !!! Watch where your at and where the other idiots who drive are at , especially when out and about on your scoots ! Once again today I came within a foot of becoming a side ornament on an idiot's h3 suv and a teeneboppers sub compact car. Why?? Becuase they were not looking (when the teen turned and when the suv tried to change lanes) !! . We are abit smaller than a standard full sized bike ( 250 scoots and trikes still need to watch aswell) and harder to see . You must be on the defensive at all times when your riding and make sure your seen . Use that horn !! Yes , a few extra tweeters is ok aswell once you get their attention ! Just don't use the tweeter on a hells angel ok ! Why am I telling you this now ? Because I was hit in December by a driver who wasn't paying attention and almost got nailed twice again today !! I don't want you winding up in the ER because of some idiot driver who wasn't paying attention and not looking when they tried to turn or change lanes right in front of you !! Trust me on this , The ER is not a fun place to be once you have been hit . Especially if your not wearing your d@#$ helmet !!Please heed my warning now or it may be too late when it happens to you !! Will C. p.s. If your scootin and don't have a helmet on, make D@$% sure your organ donor card ( id) is up to date ! p.s.s. I had my rideing jacket and helmet on when I got hit. It saved me from a very serious injury to my head and body. Yea I got a totaled scooter and a baddly brused up set of knees. Better that , than loosing your life becase you didn't have your helmet on when you got nailed !

I would say that he is one marked man now. I don't think some of his new "cellmates" will be thrilled with the bs he tried to pull ,once they get word of what the creep did. will

Having to rely on my car last month was very expensive for the very limited income I have. Hopefully now that the stella I purchased is up and going, I can save abit. At this moment I am not sure yet what kind of gas milage I can expect with it. It has a 2 cycle manual 4 speed engine-tranny compared to the twist and go my totaled Roketa had under the hood. will C.

It puts out much more voltage than a stock 6 or 8 pole. You need to have the correct voltage regulatior that can handle that heavy load from the stator assy so you don't fry your scoots electrical system. Just my 2 shekils worth ! will

More from me . I just saw your youtube video . Pull the sparkplug after turning the engine over a few times. If it smells of fuel , The carb is flooding the cylinder with too much gas. The sparkplug will tell you if your getting too much or too little fuel (a/e ltoo leaned out) .I would also check for spark from the plug itself when turning over the engine . It never hurts to have a spare plug just incase. If there is spark from the plug., then its your carb needing to be reset. The fuel air screw needs to be screwed all the way in and then turned out about 2 and a half full turns . Thats the starting point . The sparkplugs tailend is a good measure of whats happening to the fuel air mix. Black means too rich , It needs to be a tan color if I remember correctly (same on a stella 2 T engine) . The auto choke is not controlable by the rider. Once the scoot's engine warms up it backs off completely . This sounds like an issue I just had on my stella. One other issue is is the fuel getting from the tank to the carb itself ? There is a vacume hose attached to the fuel cock below the tank. No fuel to the carb means possible vaccume issue, check your vacume hoses aswell . Thats where I would start off at . Will

Bashan : " Those kick starters are a PITA! That's why I took them off of my scooters. Well, actually I just didn't feel like wrestling with it like you did when I reassembled them"
I'll agree with you there Rich. It's a big learning expierence dealing with them for the first time. When I reassembled the Roketa's engine last March and in Oct I said the h-ll with the kickstart during reassembly after some very "colorfull" words and a few sore fingers afterwords when the d#$% spring end didn't stay on its perch . ! I just hope the Stella's kick start mechanisim is easier to deal with than my totaled roketa was .

Oy ! This makes me feel very very fortunate that the rims on my Stella ( Vespa PX-150 Clone made in India) are 2 pieces that bolt together and that are not just 1 piece like on the chi-com twist and go scoots . JFYI: The 10" and 8" tires on a vespa and stella have inner tubes aswell. There are 1 piece tubeless rims available for the Vespa but are not exactly real cheap to get ! will c.

A valve spring compressor ( briggs and stratton small engine type works best) will make things much easier . There are 2 springs on each valve (inner and outter) and trying to get the retainer caps parts off and on by hand will just get you frusterated. There is also the valve stim guides you will need to watch for when the springs and valves are off the head aswell. Look at a used tools store or a pawn shop and you might get lucky and find one cheap. will
