    Well she is still going strong.
    I planed the head back a bit and will need to jet her out some more as she has more low end but no more top end.

    I replaced the air filter with one off a pocket bike but this is not so great I think it is a bit restrictive, I will do some testing next week.

    Over all Im pretty happy with this Scoot, if you see me riding around chch on her, give me a wave.

    well this bitch is still going strong carving up the mean streets of bishopdale.
    I have been upping the Jets and have gone up 3 sizes from stock and she is still running lean (speeds up when you engage the choke and doesnt 4 stroke)
    Does anyone have any small mikuni jets from size 85 -95 I could borrow and test what size I need as they are $15 each and its getting expensive considering I only drive 500m with each one.

    Also I got me a CT90 thing today, updates coming

    I kinda bobbed the rear end of her recently, this was after snapping the rear axle! Interesting thing to happen going around a roundabout.
    Scuffed up my boots, but otherwise fine!

    If you want to see my even tougher Fa50 reply otherwise I will enjoy it by myself!

    I like the ' drop down bars ' on the beast by the 105E. There are about 3 FA50s running around Te A. All seem to be tidy and running ok.

    You'll be able to do the Wanganui - Taupo scooter run next Feb then?

    still going strong

    This girl is still going strong.
    I found she loves the BP 98 Octane fuel

    I need to go up a few jet sizes as I tried a less restrictive Air Filter and she would pull WOT With the choke open..
    Im curious to see how hard she will pull, but nervous about destroying her
