Picking up LI175


Comments:

The plan was... I would disassemble. Stu Werner would build engine. I would reassemble. BUT the flood hit and I had my hands full project managing the house. Stu agreed to do the reassembly.

It was finished three months after we moved back in, just in time for Chloe's birthday. I hid it in the garage for a week without her noticing.

I've had a lot of trouble getting it to run right and use it very little. It hit bumps like it had no suspension, so I replace the R6 shock with a standard scooter shock. I also learned the proper way to set the anti-dive. It was hard to start and died easily so I replaced the OKO 30mm carb with a Dellorto 28mm. I have it mostly dialed in. I still need to find the right pilot jet. It still dies when you close the throttle all the way.
