    you need to get rid of the chip board ply wood platform... throw on a steel or aalunminum plate.then give it a coat of fire engine red paint.. then your set...

    I'd go for nice shiny aluminum checkerplate for the board. Good footgrip and it looks way cool. The rest I'd paint fire engine red with metal flake in it.

    Also use chicken wire and make an engine cover, then put a thin layer of fiberglass on that. Same paintjob as rest of scooter

    Whats the engine from btw? 50cc from a chainsaw or a big string trimmer? Love the disc brakes and the evil downgearing of the engine. What ratio are you using?

    Red

    yesss the checkered plate is the way to go!!! ive already found the plate i only have to shape it up...

    as for the engine cover i dont want to choke the cooling system so ill probably only put a cover on the fisrt set of gears and the clutch and let the engine open.

    its powered by a TC300 from tecumseh, they use this engine in ice&earth auger. plenty of power to make long wheelie . the ration from the engine to the wheel is 8:1. i ve got another sprocket that put the ratio at 9:1, which give a surprising acceleration.

    for the disk brake i took a Shimano Deore hydraulic brake. the disk is too big so it make the braking a lil bit dangerous but its no big deal..

    How about a chain guard for those still days when you come to a stop and your super hero cloak get's wound-up in the gear and breaks your neck. I biker once lost his thumb to a grear and chain. Probably would have sewed it back on, but a yard dog wolfed it down like a table scap...
