Visual Scooter Mod Bible

Brian Boston

I got myself banned.
I wanted to see if a few people wanted to help make a scooter mod bible with video tutorials of each mod. Ill host it all up on my server space. Reply here if you want to take part and film you doing one of these mods. Your going to talk on camera to show people what their doing ect. shouldnt be that hard. I think it will be great for noobs when they first come here and will help keep questions at minimum.

-bmx grips
-t-tube (bolting the T tube and/or locking the clamp) - PERU
-fork (tube inside for for reinforcement) - TRAVIS
-shocks (locking down shocks and/or replacing springs with somthing)
-headset (how to switch the headset) - CODY
-headset (how to clean
-folding mech (how to lock it) - TRAVIS
-dropouts (how to reinforce) - DIBBLE
-cutting new dropouts
-bearings (show how to switch them)
-wheels (show how to switch)
-brake (cleaning underneath for better stopping) - TRAVIS

I laughed my ass off watching Cody's video of headsets haha. That's one fast way to change it, but that's also one of those ways to fuck your headset up by bending cups and putting dents in.

damn mat, trick-video isn't a good idea. There are already texts and you can watch tricks from minivideos and clips but "how to do that trick" video is a bad idea - then almost all new riders would ride with one and same style.

ok ok sry i get it it was a dumb idea i thought i might be good B) oh and that last par "then almost all new riders would ride with one and same style" is not true. teaching someone basic tricks does not influence their style, it just helps them learn some stuff so they can develop their own style.

I own SR.
If the videos are hosted through YouTube so they don't eat my bandwidth I would be down to dedicate a new section on the site or possibly replace the FAQ section with the mod bible if it turns out good.

Allright im gonna send people PMs for whoever volunteered(sp?) tomorrow. I want to cover everything so switching wheels and stuff is getting filmed haha. I was going to put everything up on my site but youtube or maybe google video will be a better choice.
