    Yesterday I was able to get back working on the scoot. I did a little more cut and grinding on some of the old tabs I no longer need. The frame is getting closer and closer to being able to be painted. This warm weather over the weekend really had me itching to go riding.

    I already have the wiring done. I just need to actually plug and play it all. Super simple to do.

    yeah i have an oil cooler that i needed to put on so i just threaded it in without it and taped it. also for the bolt sticking out the front, when i bought the bike, the nut on top was completely gone so i grinded it flat and just welded a short bolt on it so i can tighten it on now. so yeah from the picture it looks super goofy but when its actually put all together it looks normal.
