Re: Today's Quick Pic
I enjoy the seasons, I guess the earth took a good right hook and sent it wonky,hence the seasons.
Still trying to figure out which one knocked me of kilter.

I've been in these before. The modern recreational versions, my wallet was never fat enough, plus they are a hand full.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
I saw this on the streets of Bangkok today. That windscreen is illuminated with fluorescent green. Certainly not my style, but thought it was interesting, so I'm posting it for all of to enjoy ..... or not enjoy. Check out the skinny spoke wheels as well. They are somewhat popular here, although not so much on a PCX.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
Yes, and they are quite thin as well. Not to my liking, but to each his (her?) own. I don't really care what others do to their bike because it is their bike so let them have at it. I do mine up the way I like it and am not too concerned what others think of the way I like things. Some might say that what I have done to my PCX (mostly cosmetic) is a waste of money, but it is my money and my pleasure, and I am happy with it.you you wrote:Spoked front wheel is interesting.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
You'd have to ride in this small Ohio town in the winter to see how rare this is.
He brought a big smile to my mug. I ride all winter - but thought no one else did!
Impressed that he was geared up, & NOT riding at the red line in first gear with crap after-market pipes one-handed through town - but had upright bars, with stock exhausts and riding calmly in traffic behind me for miles. Gave him a honk and a thumbs up.
Cool, mature bike rider.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
Nice electric! I looked at a Bion-x conversion kit, but just couldn't deal with the cost.
On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

Re: Today's Quick Pic
Thought I'd share a quick snap of the scoot before it gets taken to pieces.
And a closeup with the Boushi MiniMoto Grom rotor so you can see how bad my vinyl skills are.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
Does the rotor make much difference?
Re: Today's Quick Pic
Only to my wallet! It does look cool, though.you you wrote:Does the rotor make much difference?
Not to braking power at all, but maybe it holds off heat fade a bit longer?
The floating rotor design is mainly to resist warping due to heat I believe.
I've ridden a certain PCX with a 260mm rotor and I wasn't impressed at all...
I think for front braking power/bite you need a braided line and better pads.
Mind you, Apache has a 260mm rotor, and says it's really good. Not sure what pads he runs, though?
I had EBC sintered pads for a while, but my front brakes got contaminated and I had to toss them...
I've got a new set of EBC sintered pads waiting here to go on and start the bedding in process again.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
Date: Weds. 1/25/17 - I'm headed out to the Nursing Home.
I freeze, (no silly's, not from the weather!)
But because I see this! Then this!! And this!!! Something stinks, it smells BAR (I mean, BAD!)
Siren's of every flavor were whaling, the fire dept., the police, the cable company and electric company were in 'da hood and on 'da block! At the same time. Shite! (& I did!)
Can't leave. Road blocked - both ends. Not to mention the cop car sitting behind my truck!
Gas line broken by our electric company. Digging, proding and poking away in the ground, when...oops!
The taste was awful, my throat was burning and I was inside! This was a frightening day. Across the street folks were told to get out of their homes. Firemen were all over, running, hooking up to hydrant's nearby. You see 'em!
The leak was under control temporarily within an hour. Full repair was made before dark.
They let me leave. I finally got to Mom. She gazed at me and said...."well Hel-lo, I didn't think you were coming?"
So, my story began.
Mom's, ya gotta love 'em xox

Re: Today's Quick Pic
I loved the sticker on the windshield of the firetruck - "The Over The Hill Gang" - Probably a story behind that.

Re: Today's Quick Pic
Wow, I didn't even notice that! It was just so crazy here.
Now that you brought that to my attention kram, here's a topper!
Mini story:
Throughout my teen years I belonged to a gang of 40 teens called,....ready? The Hill Gang. We were all close like brother's and sister's. And get this! A few were voluntary firemen. We were a bit wild, but I never spent a night in jail. Cops knew us real good though One day, we decided to buy the same sterling silver rings and have them engraved The Hill Gang. We knew the jewelry store owner Anthony, he ordered enough of them to go around. He also engraved all of them. He was a great guy (rip).
We were Soo Cool! I still have that ring today. Geez. Memories. So there ya go, small world.
What a hoot! Now I wonder if a few of those firemen were some of my teen friends. Look at that truck, all they had to do was add 1 word, "Over" to our old gang name.
That! would be us today.
End of what was suppose to be a mini story

Re: Today's Quick Pic
I love that kitaco dash. Can you set the main gauge to km/h or mph? I was looking at it online and it looks like main gauge could be speedo or tach depending how you set it up.chicaboo wrote:And so it begins...chicaboo wrote:Thought I'd share a quick snap of the scoot before it gets taken to pieces.

Because it came with Japanese instructions, I've only assembled, mounted and wired it up without having been able to work out how to use it yet.lolofigo wrote:I love that kitaco dash.

But Kramnala just sent me English instructions, and I checked that it also does imperial units.
You can change from analogue tacho/speed and digital tacho/speedo, take your pick. Mine came with red backlight and analogue tacho out of the box.
If you really want it, it's still on sale. When it's not on sale, it's the sort of thing that looks nice but you'll never bring yourself to actually buy it...
No comment on the black meter panel (dashboard)?
