lolol. I can't believe it even moves with my 330 pounds on it plus the other stuff I carry, but it goes pretty good. In half a block it's wound out all the way and I pop it into second. I know it goes at least 35 on dirt because that's how fast I was clocked the day I wiped out. With a normal size person on it top speed is 45+ on pavement. The engine redlines at 13,000 but I don't think I'm even winding it up to 11,000. I don't have a tach to check it, but I can tell it needs a tune-up. It's not the fastest scooter out ther by a long way either. Check out the NOS Go-Ped overtaking a NOS Trans-Am. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYLECaX9rls [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

That's what it said. I think it was only a 47cc. Something in the 40s.

Mine cost about a grand. That's why it perfoms better than the Chinese POS they sell at Wally-World. http://www.walmart.com/search/...8_0&Find.x=30&Find.y=7
The racing versions of these quads, without nitrous, go fast enough to ride on the highway. I really don't think the video was faked. The guys who built the car and made the video are all about speed. Fuelsluts.net I think it was. They wouldn't show one of their cars get beat if it wasn't real, IMO. I lol when the scooter guy flipped off the other guy. I think his cockiness cost him the hole-shot but he made up for it.

112% hot. 88% not. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Well I am a little slow. I have been reading post after post and haven't reconized that you changed the picture, I was still looking for the stupid sign. I did read the heading about the scooter but never opened it up to read it until now. I was wondering if you had gotten tired of the forum, but I see that I have been reading your post all along. Nice scooter! Did you loose weight?
