Scooterotica

yeah SWS in yeovil is my nearest LOL

and at least 2+ hours on the scoooter for me, there be some huge long hills up over the moors on the way. can do it in 1hr 45 mins in the car.

Well, had a day of garage based fettling and the pipe is on.

It filts well Tony. It clears the rear panel but as i dont have rear footboards i cant comment about that.

My lack of experience with slip joint spring exhausts but i did struggle a little to get it on.

Is the idea to fit the elbow to the exhaust port and then the pipe to that like i would with my clubman etc? The joint seem very tight (which i assume is good) and i did not fancy trying to get it onto the elbow after this was on the exhaust studs.

I went to a 112 on the main with the mixture screw 1 turn out. This is providing a dark brown plug with some lighter brown parts. when first on the scoot if i wound open the throttle, it would stutter briefly clear and pull very well, especially in 3rd. (this was on 2 turns out of the screw) after it had been wound in a turn and possibly warmed up a bit, this did improve but its still a little evident.

overall, very happy with the purchase and it just needs fine tuning i think.
