Hello and welcome to the start of my build thread. Recently bought a scooter to ride to work got a deal on two more so I can use parts to fix daily when needed. Well now I have been thinking on a way to lower one of the extra ones I got. I like the jap big scooter but not ready for a 250 yet. Right now just playing with what I have. I like the tuck version better but have not seen any this way. Why not? Is it the relocating of the gas tank? What are your guys thoughts and ideas. |
I like the look. I've only had mine since last fall, but I'm already thinking of the rat-rod mods.
Keep us posted! |
I'm not sure why most of the streches seem to be Ruckus's, shear number of them???
I do know when I was at CON this year, I got to look at some really killer nice machines. However those guys did not blink an eye at dropping 5,6 or 7 thousand dollars or more into them. If your good at fabrication, wiring, and some machine work, it can be much cheaper to do. Good luck with your project. |
I like it. Ground clearance is over rated.

Attachment 505 Attachment 506 Attachment 507 Attachment 508 ok update. Got an air shock kit. This is just temp mount had to play with it. I kind of like it where the motor sits and rear but I will be moving the engine back. The only clearnace issue I have is the shock hitting exhaust. I want to build a shorty, should solve the problem. |
Nice work!! I love your storage boxes on the shelves. Looks great so far man.

Update. Finally decided where I wanted the motor mounted and got it welded up. Body is on to check clearance.

Well done. Looks like a 'busa.
|
Nice, would you like to sell the 250?

Came together well. I still have not figured out an onboard compressor. Wonder if my shock can handle 80psi
nitrogen. Thinking of a paintball tank with regulator. Luckily the cruise spot has a gas station with air. I have more lighting accessories I have to add and deleted stereo. I got it done to be a side project now, picked up a 78 monte for my next build. http://i60.tinypic.com/2nunih4.jpghttp://i57.tinypic.com/35lusft.jpghttp://i60.tinypic.com/o72cu1.jpghttp://i58.tinypic.com/29fp0ds.jpghttp://i60.tinypic.com/10dboz8.jpghttp://i60.tinypic.com/qz2ltz.jpg |

Very nice custom PHX.
I wish you would have posted more Picts. of the methods, and parts you used. Things like lowering the front end, and the body/frame work you did. |
