I also have a dual headlight system on my scoot. I don't (read: can't) drive my scoot at night because I think I'd have a better chance seeing in front of me if I had a lit candle. I'm contemplating removing the two headlights, trimming the body a lil' bit and wiring in and installing an LED spotlight.

LOL The muffler is quite big, almost like a stinger! It actually sounds pretty decent, I think. It has a bit of a throaty sound to it.

Ok everybody! I think I've finally gotten this taken care of. So, I ended up hacking my old header pipe and the new header pipe and had them welded together. That way I had the shape of the old one to fit around the frame and such and the end of the new one so the muffler would bolt up. Used some cheap aluminum angle stock and rigged up some triangulation to secure the pipe and muffler. I think it looks pretty good, seems to hold pretty tight. Made a short trial run and it sounds much better than with the straight pipe. LOL!

Some headlights are AC direct from the stator, some are DC from the regulator/rectifier and a weird few are both... AC and DC. Bringing this thread back from the dead! How do you determine what type of voltage is powering the headlights?

I would use the motor mount bolt for the top bar. Alleyoop So are you saying not to use either of those bracket sets and to just use some flat stock?

Well, you have the top mounting point at least, IDK that it wouldn't be just fine with the one mount and where it meets the engine... BUT if you decide to fab some brackets, I would make a triangle for the most support possible. GOOD LUCK! Thanks for the luck! And yea, I've spent some time in the offroad community, so I know that triangulation is key.

I like those rims you got on yours LOL, thanks. They're the stockers that came on it.

Alleyoop, I saw over on ItIsTheRide that you had been having issues with some CDI's and found one you liked from TVNACMAN. Does this have the fixed advanced timing that you were having trouble with?

In the process of upgrading my ignition system. I need to find out what spark plug to use for my application. The PO had a Champion 7TC in there (not even sure if that's what's supposed to be in there). I was planning on upgrading to an iridium anyways.
Also, as far as the ignition goes, I'm looking at my options on Scrappy Dog's site. Should I get the Performance CDI and Performance Ignition Coil or just spend the couple of extra dollars and get the GY6 Racing CDI and Red Hot High Energy GY6 Ignition Coil? What's the difference? Or do you have other preferences on what I should get?

Hmm... That link says 1.2 gallons... Maybe I'll run my all the way empty at the house, trailer it to the gas station and then fill it up.
