 :icon_eek: :oops: lol. but they work. louder? yes. a silencer would help there. although the dominator i want isnt so "obvious" or in your face.
( the dominator v2)
the chrome dominator pipe is159. the black one is 139. methinks ill save for the black one. besides frame is black, fenders are black etc. finish on pipe is a flat black, BUT with hi temp gloss paint ;)
can be made to shine
definately on the wishlist at this point yeah ill wait for the ddm. the xcan however is 40 cheaper. and a bit quieter. hmmmmmm

plus a needed rear wheel
works out to the price of the black dominator pipe

update:
bloodpressure givin me hell along with neuropathy. so while assembling the scooter, i passed out twice . anyhoo moving on. first picture shows the clutch. yellow springs are stock mid/upper stall

want to order some clutch saver springs ( which will open lower in the rev range. ( this engine revs to 18k@4.2hp) as well as a scattershield. which mounts in behind the clutch. the idea behind that is if the clutch frags on me @ 17k or so, it wont take out the engine case or lock up the driveline. anyhoo moving on.third pic is the engine with engine mount and clutch bell installed.

third and final pic of driveline is engine/mount installed with chain set to tension.
finally, i found this @ shop today. way my body is acting for last few mos working in a seated position is not safe anymore. this stand is made by trojan ( no NOT the condiment ppl) its a mitre saw stand. which elevates saw to 3.5' maybe 4'. my thoughts are to allow me to mount my jig to the platform on stand,  then secure scooter to stand. allowing me to work either standing or while in/on a bench. also a hell of a good deal. things are bringing north of 600. boss had it at 125. could get it for 100 . tbh i dont think he knows what hes got.

last bits ive got to get are
4 m5x22 screws, a 1/3x2" compression spring. right now im using hair bands for throttle return.  would like to get my hands on some 25H chain. eventually a rear wheel and an exhaust. if i take it easy and not go apeshit crazy with it, the damaged wheel will be fine. anyhoo more updates in next few days. . Thank yall for your time. projects are fun Eh?

tried installing the throttle cable using a MTB brake lever/adjuster. too tight. its tight as hell right now. will check theadjuster under the engine tomorrow. MAY take it for a ride on easy mode. since i dont have a return spring atm. im using braided rubber bands.  so she idles high. will have to fix that sopon though.

Her ass end after the test firing/bench run

now back to ebay. and virtual shopping of upgrades/repair parts. checking GPN also. will update. also once finished will post a walkaround vid and a ¡ride vid too!

btw anyone know of a small gps unit i can obtain, and slip inside frame somewhere? after the last buildup, someone convenientyl stole it. and i find out it was no more than a quarter mile from me. so that shaZam! wont happen again. or the assgoblin will be dangling by his fun bags.  :technical: i DID get the sn copied down. im just being paranoid. theres 3 gopeds in anderson county. ive owned 2 of them. i DID have my eye briefly on a 40 cc 4 stroke engine. but i dont need it so thats filed in the ¿ wtf? category atm lol

hmm a guarded toggle switch. thinking about this. either mounted under the frame or in place of hte oem one. which isnt connected yhet. to kill it i either ground the coil, or choke it.  but i like this one

got carb set up. dear GOD, the PO didnt know his arse from a hole in the ground regarding screw settings. stock ( before fine tuning is 1 3/8 turns out from closed for high speed, and 1 1/4 turns out for low. when i closed the scerws to make initial adjustments, i counted 4.3 turns in to close for high and 4.5 for low. aka i could start it, and after a few pulls MIGHT hit 11k, now after preliminary screw setup, i hit 18k give or take a few for the first time. will ride tomorrow, if weather cooperates. the torque of this engine. ( 4.2hp @18k on a 40lb frame) almost pulled the battlepig off of the improvised stand. camera is a bit dodgy, will get vid as soon as i am able.  :icon_twisted:, now definately getting my hands on an exhaust. but want to repair wheel first. its got one screw surface gone. but 3 are solid so as long as i dont do any hardcore offroading ill be okay. wish i could weld, but magnesium doesnt like that for some reason lol :technical:

Ride was good today. chain is dodgy. 3yo spares. well no over a year at least. cobbled together for parts chain. wd40'd the hell out of it, wlil oil it @ shop tomorrow when i go in. need to get my hands on a decent camera. i have a small off brand 720p which is SENSITIVE to vibes. so frame mt wont happen. thinking body mount using its straps. but will end up getting my hands on a camera though. the 98 tooth gear is a bit misaligned. can hear the telltale noise. will take care of that as soon as i can.
