dunno if Nick is too keen on getting a scooter lol. Specially since he's gunna have a spare GSXR around to ride on!

I'll come on the Scooter and try to give you a hard time through the corners. :whistle: Although I am not sure if that shot of NOS would last for too long :laugh:

I wasn't commenting on your riding TS. Lots of people say that a proper race prep scoot can kick a race bike's (motorbike) ass in cornering anyday. That's due to their feather weight, low CG etc etc.

I used to have a scooter. On your right, you'll be scraping the exhaust guard... until you finish it all and then you'll be scraping the exhaust. :niceone: On your left, you'll most probably be scraping the crankcase (depends on the model of course) but it's not as easy as scraping the exhaust...

I was getting close to getting my knee down until some c*nts stole it :argh:

I managed to scrape the front bottom corners of the bit where you put your feet on more than one occasion. Scares the shit out of you. I refuse to ride a scooter now, damn they are unstable.

Geddit geddit geddit! The old man told me something about doing a certain de restriction thingo to DJ1s that makes them easily wheelie on full curry, something about chopping something off some random bit, but then I forget. It would certainly wheelie with NOS anyway.

Most scooters can easily be wheelied if the general running condition is fairly good (mainly cause all the weight is at the back).

I'd love to but I just saw that it's in Christchurch and I don't have enough money without selling the TZR anyway...

mmmmm The gf was thinking about getting a scooter to go to work on....

*starts pondering* :whistle:

But I expect half an hour parked in town and that nos tank on the back would maraculously disappear. :argh: :whistle:

I hope you're not advocating the inhalation of automotive grade nitrous! It's poisonous don't you know.

They add sulfur to it to stop people inhaling it.
So kids please, only inhale food/medical/industrial grade nitrous.

Uh... at least thats what a friend of mine told me :sweatdrop

I had a girlfriend once whose father was a dentist.

They used to store the gas in the garage.

I think I'd better stop now before I incriminate myself. :sweatdrop

Some scooters have a restricter between the exaust post and the exaust pipe (i'm pretty sure thats where it is) to get them down to 2kw of power to comply with the moped law being 50cc and less than 2kw
