ORIGINAL: Straick

I love the way insert in the front bumper is shaped. Just added 4 leds, setup to run from a 6 volt receiver pack(good use for one that the connector went bad on). I'll post a pic as soon as I get my camera back(forgot it at a friends place). Looks good at night like that, and I'll actually be able to run after it gets dark out, which it does around 530 now.
Can't wait till I have the new piston, sleeve, and conrod for it. Should be awesome after breakin, which should be rather interesting with the weather turning colder now.

Also, if I can get it, how well does the 2 speed work, or is it a bad idea for running in dirt and grass, with no jumping?

Keith, whereabouts in NY are you? Wouldn't mind meeting up with someone else to do some bashing.
I put some LEDs in mine too. Ended up breaking the wires a few times. I need to come up with a better set up. Cant wait to see how you installed yours.
The 2 speed isnt bad on road but unless you have a strong engine like an OS its not that good off road.
Im down on Long Island. A bit of a ways from you.
