You might not like it but it's slimmer and lighter, and despite the look... comfy




I painted the cover to the radiator?? I think thats what it is? And got some anadized metric screws. SIK!!

Thats the fan shroud, this is an air cooled engine, it has no radiator.

is that the stock seat w/ no padding?

Yes.

i have seen it on allot of race bikes.
Its really not a bad idea. But after riding a super bumpy roads(the area i live in) i ended up putting it back on. If i live in a city though i think i might do it.

I HATE to sound like stillspeeding but, you cant say your all out race with a stock bore elite.

you can race with a stock bore. (gears, new filter, derestricked everything, jets, and a few other things)

Im doing that right now, I have great speed and power. I love it. Plus with the stock cylinder i can hold it WOT for hours on end.

But saying "all out race" isnt right. Your not all out race till you have a full stocker 117 or 124 cc bike.

My point exactly, this kid sounds like the type of person who will grow up to put 6" pipes on a civic and get his * whipped by camaros and trans ams every friday night.

Nothing was better when I had my 13.0 second festiva than beating up on guys in mustangs and camaros with this same attitude. Don't get me wrong I HATE CIVICS. But power to weight is a more honest measure than cubic inches....

Sorry if I sounded that way, there is a sandrail (flat four VW air cooled (unknown size)with a 4 sp bus trans)parked next to dads camaro that would probably out run the camaro in a street race. A 13 second festiva is * awesome, what did you have in it? The only festiva I saw was slow as f*** and was pretty much a floor it at stoplights to keep up car.

so i took off the padding of my seat. comfy. and you sit like 3 inches lower, so those corners can be hit a little harder. just threw on some black paint and am very pleased.

i like how people call it 'comfy'.
Its not really that great. The stock foam makes it 'comfy'. a better word for this is "does not feel bad"
