    VENTS ?
    no expert on scooters by a long way
    but i was wondering, my bike is pretty
    fast for a 70 and is a typhoon there
    for being air cooled, was wondering if
    putting vents in the panel under the
    front of the seat(footwell) would be
    any advantage because ive noticed my
    bike gets very hot on milder days. the reason
    to put the vents there is becaue its right in
    front of the cylinder head
    any advice
    thanks tom

    i have seen it done before on a few typhs and nrg's, in therory it should work because its still forcing air through the hole onto your cylinder and cooling it more..

    Anythings worth a try. Just pick up a cheap panel and do it on that rather than your one then you have a spare to put back on your bike when you come sell it :D
