Anyway, I got it running about a month ago, but haven't done much to it since. Yesterday, I finished rewiring it all, so now everything works on it except the brake light... I have high/low beam, pilot light, speedo light, turn signals, etc etc.
I couldn't get it to rev, so I messsed with the ignition advance, and finally got it revving. Well. Time for a ride.
Seeing as how I'm not used to a 30+ yr old scooter clutch, I killed it my first try. So the second try, I gave her more gas, and let the clutch out a bit faster.
HOLY CRAP! I popped a wheelie ON MY SCOOTER, and flew across my dad's yard and intot he neighbors yard. WEEE! 
I then took it for a little ride up the street and hit a maxiumum of about 30mph in 2nd gear. I STILL HAVE TWO MORE GEARS! WOOHOO! Anyway, this thing is FUN. Today I'm going to change the oil and tune it so it runs better.
Later!
