Buck10 new paint job!
I took some pictures of the before, during, and after of my project of the past couple of days. Enjoy and let me know what you think!
A little fun in the snow
The before pics
The imperfections pics
The tear down pics
I washed all the plastics with soap and water
Then wet sanded all the plastics with 600 grit sandpaper
After sanding all the parts, I rewashed them with soap and water to get all the left of sanding stuff off the parts.
The paint booth
The spice of the paint job
All the black parts have been cleared
Cant forget about the wheels
Putting the wheel back on for transportation
Back home for the rebuild
The final product minus the exhaust and a Stage6 riser for the rear shock

I know! I can't hardly find info for parts for these thing anywhere! Especially the 110s. I did finally get the pipe painted for this little dude and I took a couple of pics of that so I could post that up too. I also ordered a riser to raise the rear end a bit.
It wont be much but it'll make me feel cooler haha

Ok so we have a couple of problems. First off, the riser they sent me was the wrong one so after trying to make it fit for 30 minutes I finally realized that one. Second off, I tried to start the scooter this morning and it was a big no go. I turned the key and the gauge and brake light came on like normal but when I hit the start button there was no reaction. Like zero, not even a click or anything. I didn't think to try to kick it as I have a truck so I just drove that to class, but I'm really lost on what the problem could be. So the question is, did I leave a connection unplugged or is there actually something wrong here? Let me know what y'all think!
Thanks,
Cole

Haha ya I mostly just do short campus rides so I might just lose the mirrors all together.
And with the grounding thing, it ended up being the plug for that whole throttle assembly came unplugged. So that was a simple fix, it just took a second to figure it out. I'd rather it be something like that over something that cost money though! Haha

Ya I bought a cheap paint gun thinking that I was going to do it myself. Then I started researching how to paint and I began to learn how difficult it actually is soooo I ended up spending about $300 on paint and a case of beer on a local painter and now it looks like it looks haha.
I'm still planning on learning how to paint this summer when I get out of classes and stuff so maybe the next job will be one of my own creations!
