Scooter Update, aka: Avoiding the boredom doldrums:
Grandson and his younger sister are due here next Saturday for a week's vacation from parental rules, order, bedtime hours, nutritious snacks, G-rated movies and whatever else rubs 'em the wrong way. It's my job and I'm danged proud of it. I have been told by their parental units that it requires a minimum of 30 days to re-train them. Damn, I'm good!
Plan to solo the lad on the SunL scooter -and doing so without checking in with parents- so have put off the Big Bore install until they return to their wardens. However, I did fit the higher voltage coil and the performance CDI ignition unit. Test ride imminent...
The neighborhood street in front of my back fence Beemer buddy has a slight uphill gradient. In a one-block run, 30mph is the best I've ever achieved. The new ignition components alone gave me a 20% speed improvement to 35+mph. That's with a $19.95 investment.
Stay tuned as I'm sure there will further be further adventures to mention in despatch. Oh, and photos or it didn't happen.
