Summer In Full Swing
Ridding and Modding
Well here we are going into the Fourth of July with a bang, I sure have been ridding now for 3 months just about everyday making a trip to shop at least once a week for a 85 mile run on a CF Moto V5 hopped up with MRP Pipe and Dr Pulley Clutch and sliding roller weights. I will soon also put a 300cc MRP kit with forged piston for even more power for my V5. The 300cc Kit from Martin racing performance will work on the chinese CN250 engines used in most of the 250 scooters using a vertical engine. With clutchs, weights and variators and belts scootertronics does carry even perofrmance for your 250 Honda clone engine to get alot more out of it just as in the GY 6 50 and 150 scooters. Dr Pulley cltch and bell added to a JMStar Expressway 250 will give a tremndos boast on take off and allow for greater top end speeds. We have shipped a few with the Dr Pulley 231802 clutch and bell and also needed to fine tune variator weights with Dr Pulley sliders to keep the scooter still so it would not burn out so much.
Linhai 300 and 260
These two models from Linhai have company in the Vog 260 which is a good performer also. We have been collecting different high performance parts for the Yamaha designed engines as well as the Honda designed 250s. Cylinder kit plus clutches, belts and variators are being put up on scootertronics for the summer along with a custom rear rack for Linhai 300s for adding a trunk as well as soft luguage that will be added for Vog 260 and Linhai 260.
Fast Times Delivery
Second week of July still has found us behind in completing most part orders for stock parts and pretty much good for high perofrmance. 2008 has brought many challenges to Scootertronics and to me at this point we are hiring and rearranging sales, parts , trunks, windshields, Givi products as well as our scooter helmet line, stock parts then high perofrmance parts. Account managers will soon take over most of the day to day operation with shop staff being reduced and then beefed up for support. This means a parts dept to ship and service shop.
The delay for scooters is most due to production from china and bad timing by many distributors which has left scootertronics high and dry for some time as for a complete line we have been used to selling for the past three years. With adding a few scoots here and there we have been able to fill most orders for those who want a certain scooter. I have made mention of this before and basically we are only offering custom 50cc scooters at this time as well as our Maxie and 150 scooters. This means all 50cc four stroke models are sold as custom hopped up scoots and no stock bikes. There are too many selling the exact same thing and we stick to what we know and give all customers a chance to get a powerful scoot along with our local customers.
