    I'm lazy - if a CDI engine runs, I don't even check the timing.

    You should be able to run a cheap eBAY LED or 2 for a headlight. I used something like this on my TRX70.
    Used a regulator like this basic 2-wire dirt bike regulator.

    I didn't do a build thread on the 90 - just some before and after pics:

    It was fun but I sold it shortly after the final pics with the big tires. Somebody got a great deal on it - like $450 I recall. Took forever to sell it. No demand. Frustrating because it had some hard to find pieces like the stupid seat pan (it was the early version with a "pan" only on the back 1/3 of the foam) and seat button/straps on the front sides and a great 4+4 4x130 aluminum front rim.

    Thanks for the info jb! Wow $450 for that machine, that stinks, sorry for your loss. I'll tackle the carb again on saturday and set the timing dead centre to the plate cut out. Here's hoping it works good. Can't wait to beat on this thing. Too many nice ones that don't get rode hard in the shop.

    Took it out for a long ride yesterday and was happy with the performance. See http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthr...ing-Good-Times! Just have to address a bad sparkplug boot and monitor the oil consumption; which seems to smoke only on start up :-). I might even put a nice rear fender on this if it continues to run well (seen some in classifieds ) , we'll see!

    Fugly gets Lights!

    Update! Thanks to Mattdragontamer and my tickle trunk of parts, Fugly now has lights. Since I was using a 110 wiring harness and handlebar control, we thought "what the hey" might as well install some lights. Matt did a great job as usual! Don't know why my pics are sideways, Mac thing I guess? I'm in the process of getting a rear fender now; might not deserve "Fugly" for long.
