Case Study by Wayne 2007.07.18 - Vancouver, CANADA
We like customers who did homeworks before they came, Sandy for example,
she knew exactly what she want: A RUCKUS can catch people's eyes,
no blink stuffs, must be Tracker-Style and has knob tires.
After few discussions with her, we started this project and combine
her ideas with existing parts. We choose MICHELIN Reggae tires on
Dio ZX rims (Aluminum rim 2.15" wide, stock rim is 3.5".),
so the tires look higher and rounder on narrow wheels. For head lights,
stock one looks tough and match with Tracker-Style (North American
head lights are bigger than Japanese version because DOT requirements.),
but we cut signal light brackets and move horn back into front panel.
On tail part, we installed 2 super bright LED strips under the seat,
one for running light and the other for brake light, also cut stock
light bracket with detail surface processing.
The most difficult part is open air-filter and breathers, we tried
K&N filters, but hard to find right size with correct airflow,
so we selected KITACO Elbow Type Air Filter to gain beautiful clearance
between rear tire and carb, the UNI breathers are right colors and
small enough for us to lineup them with a nice layout.
This project took us 7 months to completed, Sandy gave us lots of
freedom to work, so the results also turned out great, we really enjoyed
work on her scooter.
