Morini Brake Lights, V1 porting Success, stock Derbi tuning, and a few photos.

Busy week of getting stupid on mopeds! Found out some things I didnt know which is always cool. I've been drilling out a ton of Dellorto Sha 14:12 carbs to 15mm and its been real fun. I can safely say I've mastered it.  But I have read of them being drilled to 15.5mm or 16mm so I'll graduate to that soon enough. Been riding all my bikes a ton and trying to get them to mes sup which I am very good at doing. drilled my 12:12 to 15mm on the variant sport and matched the intake. Then took 3 weights out the variator, the low and mid is pretty insane for a stock cylinder... BUT of course it wont variate all the way. haha so I'm gonna have to add some more weight. I discovered a new tool to love and here are some stupid photos.

Ever think your brake wiring is hooked up properly and yet your Italian bike still dies a second after you pull the brake levers? Well you may have the wrong voltage bulbs in and think it will be fine. it isnt. Too high of voltage will pull just enough juice away from the coil to kill your engine. PS pics are of a Morini M01 engine on an Andiamo.
 I used to think "yeajust use a12 volt because it wont blow out" I was being dumb.


HEY SPAIN!
 Bought a flatreed center stand for a Derbi ds50 and had to extend it. It's now painted black and doesnt look so ghetto.
 Damen st burnt Church.
 "Yea I just kept riding on it man, can you fix this?"

 Alright! The Pepi rides again. The port job I did has paid off netting a 6 mph gain from 28 mph to a whopping 34 mph. It's wrapping out so high with that dumb gearing hahah. I'm planning to drill the carb and intake to 15mm soonish and see wheat else I can squeeze out of it. :) stoked!
 Round 2 Hercules tank flush. I'm using vinegar because I am poor.
 So I just realized that this 1 1/4th (roughly 32mm) socket fits on everything!!!!! I'm using the shit out of it. Derbi triple tree nut.
 Derbi Laguna shock top nutterz
fits HPI rotor!!
 Also fits the inside nut holding the whole pug varo together, you know the one that is recessed and is hard as shit to get a crescent wrench on.

We got a sweet new dog at the castle, his name is Wiley, if you see him you should pet him.

HUGE Photo Update! CREATURES: Trick or Treat 2 Rally + West Coast Road Trip.

Huge update! WELLL I decided last minute to go to the Creature's rally in San Francisco. I sold a Peugeot clutch pulley and pipe to my buddy Marvin and bought my ticket. The flight was cool and I didn't have to sit next to any drunk or morbidly obese people. Stayed with Blk Blk Alex who is an angel sent from on high. Not only did she provide and nice quiet spot for me to sleep on the first 2 nights, she also loaned me her rad magnum for the weekend. I got to finally troll and hangout at Treats HQ! I  hung out all day asking mundane questions about parts, I'm sure they were thrilled to have me there. Friday night ride was fast and rad. Jimmy and David got in a fender bender. The Saturday ride was awesome. I was late and missed the ride leaving. Thankfully Ace was at the spot and pointed in the direction the pack had gone. I was riding for probably 10 miles by myself playing a non-certain game of catch up. Finally I spotted everyone and jumped in the middle of it all. My friend Nikki (BANG! GANG!) hopped off a motorcycle  and onto my bike. We had probably a 10 to 3 moped to motorcycle ratio on the ride. It's nice to have motorcycles to block traffic for you. The ride was pretty smooth and very hilly. At one point in the suburbs a cop started chasing us all, it was cool. Ultimately he ended up tackling a Seattle rider and taking him to jail. HAHA Oh God. The twisty turns were awesome along the way and there was only 1 gnar hill I couldn't make it up. The campsite was rad and in the forest. The motorcycles beat us there. From there: Food, Fire, Dildos, Beers, Red Bulls, Ballons, Dildo Contests, Burning Dildos, Allen going into a Black Flag K-hole, Maitland: Rally Bong, Zach Evans telling it how it is, Shrine Time, Laughing, Sleeping.  Im typing too much. Amazing Rally you can see that in the pics. THX  Mikey D, Allen, Alex, Benji, Creatures, Lateturds, Bengry, Nikki, Seth, ACE.
Good seeing everyone.
