How to install a mountain bike stem.

[gn2]

daring

A strange way of spelling "stupid"...

Just not your cup of tea, GN2. I think it's silly, but really cool that dasshreddar is willing to customize his PCX to make it something totally different.

I'll move this thread to the gallery. It's awesome the skills you have, but I don't see anyone else being ballsy enough to attempt this.

I think it's silly

I think it's just plain dangerous and from a UK standpoint, it would probably result in an immediate MoT failure and invalidation of insurance.
I doubt any UK insurer would take on any scooter modified in this way.

[maddiedog]

Valid, but he's in the US. We have some weird crap on the road here.

Anyways, topic moved to Gallery subforum.

You're not kidding.

Definitely over the top for me but, I give you credit dasshreddar you dig in and experiment. Some might label this kookie/crazy (& it is), but I'm thinking you're interesting. However, I will read & watch "your hands" do the work, mine shall never desire to take on this type of "mod" (if that's what you call it). Take care though, you don't want to hurt yourself or someone else should........"Scoot Frankenstein" get out-of-hand
Oh yeah, I agree with maddie, would you please take a few steps back and snap a Fuller pic?

[you you]

Its a damn site more interesting and ambitious than fitting heated grips

[dasshreddar]

Thanks guys, I'll get some more pics up soon.

At least it is not a post trying to get a 125cc to do 150mph....

Am sure there must be one somewhere ;-)

^ He's cheating, that's a 2-stroke.

[gn2]

Could probably do it on a 4-stroke with turbo and nitrous oxide

must admit to having enthusiastically scrolled down through the pics until I saw the headstem shot.. :O it was almost like a 'when you see it..' moment.

having rode bmx for many years I just can't see how even one of the most solid of stems might be a possible alternative to the stock bar clamp setup. but kudos to you sir, for being innovative, and highly skilled in your craftsmanship!

Thanks and I've had no issues/regrets since installing it...
Coming from a bicycle background and not a motorcycle background, it was a no brainer to have a bar setup similar to that of my mountain bike(and gy6/ruckus)

i see where this is coming from im from a ruck background myself as you can see with my other scoot and dude i love seeing what you come up with even if its not my cup of tea.
