Need Some Inspiration For Colours To Paint My Scooter


Recommended Posts

hey guys,

so its that time of the year again when i can take the scooter for a ride without having to come home and defrost my hands in the oven.

its nothing spech ( honda today, 50cc's of extreme performance) but still runs like a dream but the outside has coped abit of abuse over the years( stacked it doin a mono, rode through bushes etc) and is in need of a paint job.

so far options are: CAMO (GREEN/ BROWN/ DARKGREEN)

KEN BLOCK/MONSTA LOOK ( MATT BLACK/ FLURO GREEN WITH STICKERS)

GULF RACING( SKY BLUE WITH ORANGE STRIPE AND NUMBER AT THE FRONT AND

SIDES)

just to give an idea of the gulf look iv done a prototype if you can call it that.

im leaning towards the gulf racing theme due to its bright colours as im more likey to end up under a car at night with the thing painted black. but im finding it hard to find the racing muber and white circle stickers. so if ne1s in the know send me a pm.

so feel free to throw sum ideas pretty much open to nething.

cheers lol.

Don't really like scooters at the best of times, at least if you paint it camouflage, if you see a hot chick you can ditch it in the bushes and tell her you ride a motorbike :D . When she hears the noise she'll think its a whipper snipper. Seriously; Matt black- it needs all the attitude it can get.

    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
    • Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
