awesome. I do have quite a lot of 50ccm experience myself with an GDR Model called Simson S51. I even was camping and did some "adventuring" with it ... But holy mother of XXX did you guys push your luck riding these slippery bush trails on full throttle with effective no breaking. Sure the perspective on the helm mounted GoPro will cause some irritation to me. For the Scooters. I would have striped them as far as possible. Plastic will never keep up with the forces you are facing. The stabilizer with the gas tank where an awesome idea. This is a keeper for me. and for fun trips I would detach the ammo bins. But overall awesome (I thid i did mention that already ;) )

funny because iv been looking for a video like this for a while, for example making the scooters more weather friendly , but you went offroad friendly, would be good to see you go over the scooters in detail n maybe making them more weather friendly too. i liked the idea of putting bars down the side of your engine case, was hoping too see the outcome... hands down is in the top 5 vids iv seen on youtube hope too see more
