OMG, Ashley's Scoot just came out PERFECT... It's amazing how much of a difference a lower Wheel setup will do. Best feel-good Vlog for a while for me, not sure if it's you guys, the music, the edit, the vibe... prolly just the sum of it, so thanks for sharing !!

With a front wheel upgrade on the metropolitan I have to use a ruckus steering stem, apparantly because of the 4 inch wide tire. So I'm wondering what to do with stock handlebars since they wont fit on the ruckus stem ,and I want to use the stock handlebars. Have you had experience with this? I see you have a custom wheel. What size is it? It seems that it might be a better solution to use what kind of wheel you have, than changing the front stem. Sure would appreciate any info you may have to share on this. Also did you have to use a Ruckus Swing arm to make the rear wheel fit? Some great ideas, especially with the vinyl plastic sheets with the Met and It looks pretty decent with those wheels. Im watching tons of videos and yours shows some very good options. So Im going crazy wondering how to at least just do nice wheels like you got. What a nightmare of options.

You should ballence the front wheel a little bit. Either deflate the tire and rotate it on the rim or use small lead weights. Nice work on the fender wrap!

There are these glass beads for tires that you can use to counter act the balance on motorcycle tires, they work up to a certain speed before centrifugal force takes affect.

@LeDribFPV 3 жыл бұрын

We have larger bikes too (just 300s). And actually I’ve been wanting to get a 600. But, we still ride the scoots all the time. It’s just. Different thing, more casual. Like you just hold full throttle the whole time and make a lot of noise cruising at 40mph haha

@lolipopsandfancypants7257 3 жыл бұрын

@@LeDribFPV My first bike was an honda atc 70 3 wheeler. At some point we had to put a cr80 carburetor on it... and then it went from 32 kph to about 80kph. Which was snakey as all hell to be going on that little thing. So I have known that thrill. lol. You can actually do a ton on a Ninja 250 if your good. Once you get to 600cc and above it just becomes the difference between blink and blink unless you have somewhere special to ride. 600cc smokes any kid in any sports car. I think a 500 Ninja would be a nice power to weight ratio that one could really carve their way through a pack. On a carve road you could stay with or ahead of the heavier larger bikes as an average fit rider. One thing about bikes more important than what you ride is whether you have something to go out on or not. That's the biggest divining line between how much fun you have. Staying home... not fun... going out... fun... then the extra fun satisfaction falls off from there with slight improvements to your ride. My favorite bike was my last bike. 1992 Yamaha FZR 600. Rattiest bike I ever had... Solid mechanically but bought it off some kid who spray painted it flat black... so I slapped punisher logos on the fairing and hot wheels decals on the bottom of the fairing so that when you canted over in the corners you could see the logos. It was a tribute to my Hot Wheels crazy 4 yr old... but then he started looking under cars he liked in parking lots to see if they were Hot Wheels after that. It really baffled the wife until she finally asked him what he was doing. I rode that bike hard and never fretted about it. Just took my enjoyment out of it... laters, I rambled on enough...
