    Alright, I'm calling the vibration "not okay" and blaming it on a driveline. I'm gonna pull the driveshaft to get balanced, and get a new guibo and CSB. Having never done either, any words of wisdom.

    Still debating on doing before scooters or not. I can likely have parts on Wednesday, but that's cutting it alittle close to reassemble (in case I run into any issues).

      Make sure to preload the CSB rubber surround when you bolt it in.

        Its an easy job that can be done in an evening, just make sure you but the bolts through the right direction when putting on the guibo.

                    I've been so busy with house and baby stuff,

                    Not much to report. This winter will start all the bay work, but won't be much to report between now and then. Just driving it and enjoying it!

                    I do need to replace the guibo and CSB soon tho, hopefully order parts this week.

                    One from this weekend:

                                    Where did you get it painted?

                                    I decided that after all the mechanical work I am putting in mine I owe it to the car to get painted.

                                      Inline Autobody in Oshkosh. Kurt (owner) is the only guy I'll take my paint stuff too - does good work and great prices.
