After two+ years on the island I have just completed all the paper work for my first motorcycle and YA it feels good. Been awhile since I used a clutch but things are coming back nicely.
It’s just a Kymco 150 CC but it has some balls. And it has the extended forks, but not chopper style. It also has a nice sissy-bar back rest for the passenger. Nice big seat. I should post some pics soon, if for nothing else, then for “before and after” value. I’m planning big things for this bike because I still have my scooter for work.
Previous owner is an enthusiast and took good care of it. Everything passed at the mechanic and I’m on my way. However, I must replace some parts because said previous owner was not into aesthetics.
The one thing I can’t understand is why he left the whiny sounding muffler on there, which is rusting to beat the band. It makes the bike sound like it’s always revving a tad too high during shifts at low speed. Anyway, can anyone get me started here and recommend a good, throaty sounding muffler that won’t set me back an arm and a leg. I just bought a new muffler for my Jockey 125 and even that was 900 so I’m thinking a decent muffler for my 'cycle will be anywhere from 1500-2,000?
Cheers
