Scooter Mod Bible

thanks.. that wasnt in the scooter mod bible! lol

reinforcement: To me, riding without a reinforced deck is a total waste. The mod isn't extremely difficult, and will add months to life of your scooter. To mod a B deck, you'll need 2 steel plates cut down to fit the side of the deck, a B model axle, and 2 sets of small (1-1.5 in long) bolts with nuts. Drill holes so that the brake pin can be used to partially hold on the steel plates. Next, line everything up, and drill a hole on the plate-end closest to the front, through the plate, the side of the deck, the opposite side of the deck, and the plate on the other side. Use the B back axle and tighten it with AllenÃ?Æ?Ã?¢Ã?¢ââ?¬Å¡Ã?¬Ã?¢ââ?¬Å¾Ã?¢s wrenches to hold the plates in place. Next, on both sides of the scooter, on the plate-end closest to the back, drill a hole through the plate and the side of the deck, then tighten the nut and bolt, preferably using a lock washer. Another thing I've found helpful is putting superglue or another strong adhesive underneath the entire plate, adding to the the strength of the bolts. I've heard of people also doing front deck reinforcements, and even full deck reinforcements, so experiment and find your own techniques.


im sorry but there is no one to help me with this shit so ill bring this up becouse i wana see a pic or something i cant reallly get this with words

ok would this help too, in a new B model (cause that's the only crap around) would it be safe to drill a hole right next to the folding mech, and stick a strong peice of metal long enough to reach to either side and hope it doesn't shake?

good reinforcement for back droup outs . makes it a little heavier . unless you use alumnun. take a rectangle piece of metal make suure it will slide into the side of your scooter ( vertically) just drill holes match the 2 holes up to the brake whole and the axel hole and tighten it and kamboom there it is

no matter what i do the front of my deck is always close to the ground....i push the bars alll the way up and lock it and still does it.......wtf is wrong?

 

[Stan Smirnoff]

I had that problem before. Its somthing with the folding mech, you dont have it pushed up all the way even though it seems like you do, i never really solved the problem though.

 

[VillageFox]

i guess i just have bad luck,lol......3rd scooter like that
it hit bottem on anything over a 5 stair. 360ed a 6, hit bottem and bashed my knee on the clap

 

[Brian Boston]

Are you locking your mech with 2 or 3 bolts. If your only using 2, put a 3rd in the spot where you see it in the pictures of everyones scooter.

 

[VillageFox]

i use 3. i doubt its the headset. it was fine with my old a.

 

[Brian Boston]

Ehh im not sure than, if i still had that deck i would help you figure out the problem but i dont have it anymore. Your on your own unless somone else has the same problem haha.

 

[VillageFox]

i was thinking about taking the folding mech rails out and then tightening it the making the holes the the deck alitttttle bigger, just alittle so it would be tighter at the bottem.......but thanx anyway, idk what im gonna do, probally put another new a deck together.


i figured out how to fix it. just put a bigger bolt in,lol. i had 3 rear b axels.

 

[Stan Smirnoff]

I got this deck i have

and this is the foldy i need to put it onto.. so i need to drill the holes and shit i get that but i need to have the original plate from the other side of the foldy so it holds it with the bolts i got? or wha

 

[Kevin Vannauker]

You use the B deck plate. Try to drill your mech like 1/4 inch back from the front of your scooter, lasts a little longer.

 

[Pete Pachota]

My guess is that you got it from David as its "I'm a fag" written there.

 

[Stan Smirnoff]

loooooooooool thats not where i got it from but dave does write shit like that everywhere i actually got it from another kid who thought it would be funny to do that! hers what it looks like complete!

took me 4 hours but i did it!
