New to the scooter life...

Post by CO BlackCatRider »

What's up everyone... Just wanted to stop by and say that I finally made the jump and purchased a 50cc Genuine Black Cat. I also purchased the 70cc upgrade and the aftermarket exhaust pipe... which is delaying my first ride since I have to wait until next week for all of these parts to be installed... I can't wait!

The first thing that needs to be done once my cat is home is the decal removal process... and eventually repainting all of the yellow a flat black.

Once the cat is home I will post some pictures...

If anyone has any ideas on the best way to paint the yellow panels please let me know. I am planning on sanding, primering then painting....

Hey, CO BlackCatRider

Where in Denver are you? I think I saw your BlackCat at Sportique.

I did make my purchase at the Pecos Sportique today... I know they had one sitting out for test drives but I am not sure if that one was mine...??

I was at the South one yesterday and saw one on show - oh well - welcome! I was thinking of the 70cc kit, would love to compare your bike to my 50cc roughhouse to really see what the difference would be like.

Ooooo maybe a fade to black paintjob for the BlackCat? Just a hint of yellow still showing around the edge?
