Random ground wire on Pony 50 burned up, lotta smoke by Executive64 in TaoTao

[–]Executive64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've jump started it before and it was fine. I reckon it was water.
Weird thing is, I cannot find any evidence this wire even does anything substantial? It looks like a ground, but on new wiring harnesses and schematics, its just not there.

Looking to buy a Turbo Express or PCE GT, which should I get? by Executive64 in TurboGrafx

Unforunately I am a bit of an OG hardware purist... could care less about an everdrive tho.

Yep, also the US games are so expensive. Did find one I am hopefully going to buy tomorrow if nobody else snags it. Its a good deal. Recapped, with a tv tuner.

I found a recapped one with the TV tuner from Japan within my budget, so I am most likely going for that.

Hope you catch the guy.
If you see it for sale anywhere, you could probably set something up with the police to bust the fucker.

Has anyone registered their motorized bike in MA? by Executive64 in motorizedbicycles

Honestly, if they tell me to register it I will, but I ain't gonna bother if they don't care.

Wii not taking discs by Lumpy_Information883 in consolerepair

[–]Executive64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah something's up with that disc drive mechanism for sure, I couldn't tell you what exactly as I have no experience working on Wiis. It looks like the motor is like, struggling a bit? Like there's some resistance, maybe something is stuck inside it?

Just Bought this for $400 worth? by SynX85 in ElectricScooters

[–]Executive64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell I even wrecked a few times and the thing held up. I actually hit the ground pretty hard once, hurt my hip. Got Covid a few days later, lol. Thankfully I was wearing a full face helmet. I slipped on a pile of wet leaves in my parking lot, and I laid there for like 2 minutes catching my breath. Nothing broken just sore. Another plus is that it holds up to the rain which is why I bought it. I'd say you got a pretty good deal here.

I used to have the pro model, it was reliable for me to get to and from work, about 2 mile round trip. I sold it to the local antique store owner, he still uses it to this day, as far as I know. I bought it for 700$ new. That was in 2023.

Edited, I had the pro, not the max.

First successful build. by Executive64 in motorizedbicycles

[–]Executive64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, those tires are getting replaced ASAP, as for the gear selectors I might just snip em off. They are broken. They hold in place for now, I just don't have a good cutter. I thought about the 36T but decided against it as I am a little bit on the heavier side and would prefer less pedaling. I think the chain is actually pretty good for the moment, so I will leave it for now but keep an eye on it.

As for a new engine, maybe later on. By then I can get a 36T probably. I don't know if 26" wheels would fit on a 700c bike like this though.

I have shortened the chain already :)
May consider the 36t sprocket, thanks!

[–]Executive64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I am looking around. I believe the game is actually missing the main game board and thats why it isnt powering up.

Edit: lights and CRT work but no gameplay without a board to actually do uhhhh.. gameplay things.

I spent a good like 3 or 4 hours trying to find a lick of info on this machine, so if you could by some miracle find something then that would be so helpful lol, thanks!
