Re: check it

I don't see that working out to well, anyone tried it? I thought about something a little more like the nitrous Express $500 set up...

is this setup for a scooter??

i dont see it working very well with the other one either. i think it would probably lean it out so bad the motor would blow if you didnt run it rich all the time. unless you made a way you could adjust the air/fuel mixture on the go or computerized it or something

Re: check it

It just looks like the CO2 deal to me. I don't think anybody make nitrous in those tiny little metal things.

Re: check it

People using whippets to give their scooter an edge?

You are supposed to get a whippet chamber, fill up a punchball or balloon with the Nitrous, and then breath it in to get high..

Or use them to propel whipped cream, their intended purpose!

I think I'm going to rig up an aerosol whip cream can to my bars and run a hose to my intake. I can just press the nozzle to the side and wham, instant gratifying speed...

While I can't speak for others, I'd much rather have a wet nitrous system on my motorcycle over a dry shot, especially one that is unregulated.

For the uninformed - Urban Dictionary..

1. whippet 80 up, 18 down
The huff of nitrous oxide (NO) left in a carefully managed can of Reddi Wip after all the cream is gone.

Whipped-cream-in-a-can is propelled by nitrous oxide. This usage is the source of the term "whippet". The term has come to refer to any little canister that'll give you a hit of NO.
Sure I'll pass the Reddi Wip, but save me the whippet.
