That's my plan just as soon as I get it back from http://standardfunctions.com/ + put a HID in that weak ass headlight.Rush wrote:Take off them DOT lollipops and wire up your frame turn signals!

I just finished the HID install, 10 min. job. as for the rear tire guard: gonna keep that. I ran out of $$ so the chrome bulbs will wait till my next paycheck. I don't care if I bother oncoming drivers. I had a woman make a left rite in front of me yesterday, IF NOT FOR THE GREAT BRAKES ON THE BLUR I WOULD HAVE T-BONED HER. she said "SORRY I DID NOT SEE YOU".

Thanks, it is very nimble lil scoot. but I hate the seat for rides over 20min. lolKCScooterDude wrote:Nice. I need to do the light mod. I've always thought the Blur is the perfect scooter for an underlighting project. Welcome to Blur ownership.

There must be huge differences in output on these motors as yours is almost brand new so shouldn't be at full potential yet. I went out on the highway yesterday and the best I could do was 70 mph on a flat section on the way home. I have about 1800 miles on my scooter. Earlier in the day I was running flat out downhill and only saw 66mph. To give details it was about 50F and I weigh 170lbs. I would love to be able to ride with someone like you and see if there is a true speed difference, or if it is a speedometer variance. So few Blurs around here to even attempt it.TheycallmeD wrote:That was flat, now wind. I was like WTF?!

Re: new blur
There is actually a thread about this very issue on the forums. Someone is selling a modified seat which takes about 2" off the height. They want to trade for an OEM seat.toot wrote:The reason I can not ride the blur is because the seat is too high!!! What did you do to the seat, and how many inches did it take off seat height?? Thank you in advance, Terri
