Scooterworks Tech advisor, Ken, took full advantage of an unsuspecting Roughhouse last week. The result was a very angry scooter that he dubbed ‘The Slaughterhouse’.
With a suspension overhaul, the Prima race pipe and a slew of NCY performance parts, he took this scooter from a back roads errand runner to an asphalt hell raiser.
Ken replaced the stock cylinder with a 68cc ceramic NCY jug and head, and the NCY Direct Ignition Coil was added for hotter spark. He swapped the stock carb with an adjustable 19mm Malossi carburetor to compensate for the bigger displacement. The air box was replaced with the Scooterworks racing air filter for more flow, and the new carbon fiber Pinasco reeds make this baby’s heart a-flutter. All of these changes mean that this little beast is breathing the way it was meant to, and getting all of the tasty premix it so craves. He also installed the NCY Super Trans Kit, using lighter weights for more delicious torque, and a Malossi Kevlar Belt to handle it all.
The beefed-up front end on the Slaughterhouse is probably the most obvious upgrade. Ken replaced just about everything he could with NCY parts, from fork tubes and the disc brake to the caliper and valve stems. The result- a better ride that eats stoppies for breakfast.
Ken also snagged our prototype low profile RoughHouse seat (expected this spring, in black and red) and installed the Scooterworks Low Down Shock, reducing the seat height a full three inches in the process.
All of these upgrades are well and good, but perhaps the most notable and reasonable for the sane rider, such as you, are the tires. By switching from the stock knobby tires to Vee Rubber sport tires, he has added about 4 mph to his top speed, all while giving the Slaughterhouse a more refined, business casual look.
The Slaughterhouse is not affiliated with the Slaughterhouse Rally, which is held in Chicago every year over Labor Day weekend, and is awesome. For more info on that, join their Facebook group or scope out their website. This year’s details are coming soon!
