no i sure didnt,came right off.gotta use a deepwell socket ,as there really is not enough room for a short extension and socket ,and 14g is what is common in them , man do i love the extra pop it has now,it's vary much like a rebel 250cc as far as pick up to 55mph or so ,plus i need much less throttle to get up hills now , and no loss of top end at all! mabie got more if anything,i also took jrryan's advise on tire upgrade and that may have given me a mile or two top end ,it sure in the hell helped on smoothing the ride and doubled the handeling ,plus now my chino metor is only off by 4 mph on top side, 51mph and up, below 51 it is dead on !.
i also did not use grease ,except a little on slides.
happy highway's

torque is the amount of strength used to tighten a bolt or nut, or... are you talking about rear wheel tork ? i just orderd a torque wrench from harber fraight couple day's ago, to torque the axle nut to the 45lb's it is supposed to be (correct me if thats not the right setting )

yes i think so ,mabie , do you have an impact wrench? , i used a chain wrench myself and it came off with just a little grunting...lol
i DO have some long hills in my town and it sure helped and at first i didn't lose any top end but i have a tare in my diaphragm and thats keeping me out of the race's for now,but you will love the take off and passing power from that upgrade for sure!,i think it is pound for pound the BEST upgrade one can do for these scoot's!!

hi all i have wanted to put a running light in the back of the back rest for some time , i bought it at orielly's for 7 bucks. it gives a taller and more in line of sight running light to be seen by,taking off the backrest plate is just 2 screw's then fishing the wire down threw the hole and down to the license plate light and using quick connects .drilling the holes for the mounting screws was a breez as well .then drilling a hole dead center of the plate for the light wires to go threw,pic's to fallow  happy highway's |

i agree with cc the most help is going to be dont look at the bike ,look where you want the bike to go !
think positave tell yourself ... i got this ,no problem, if you say you cant ..you won't
if you go at it in a i WILL do this mind set than yo WILL .
even put out some cones or can's to use as a focus point for your turn's and stop's ,pay attention to how you progress each couple of stops and turns and youre confidence will grow.
where helmet and gloves and jacket and good boots while you practice , if you spill dont give up !my wife spilled 3 times in a church parking lot , she used the front break in turns and whell....poof.good luck to you and ...sweet looking scoot!
happy highway's
