Hello from Oregon. Just got my new 2019 TaoTao 125cc Hellcat. Was great to find a group. These are great little bikes. I'm hoping to learn more about it.

Thanks guys!! I love it. It's great to find clone groups. Everybody here all have the Groms. I'm the only clone. It's a lonely place lol

Kimberly · 10-07-2019, 08:03 PM

It's still stock right now. Am going to do some mods on it. Changing out the clutch and break levers, new exhaust, new clutch pedal. Any other suggestions?

Welcome to here! Go down to the 'Street' section if you haven't already done so. Most do own Vaders, but there are a few Hellcats in that section, too.

Hellkitty · 10-07-2019, 09:29 PM

welcome to the forum! Fellow Hellcat owner here. Mine used to look just like yours except in blue, I decided I wanted to turn mine into a lil dual sport bike so now it looks like this.......

Kimberly · 10-07-2019, 10:05 PM

Wow! I love it. Mean looking little bike. It's amazing how different it looks. Can't wait to start modifying mine.

Welcome, Kimberly. Sweet bike!
My wife and I love Oregon; we love to camp there.

Kimberly · 10-08-2019, 07:19 PM

Oregon is amazing. I love where I live =) hey, where do you guys get your aftermarket parts to modify this? I'm having a horrible time. My first problem is to change that clutch lever. I hate it. Need one closer to the grips. I can't find compatible parts for this one.

**JerryHawk250** · 10-08-2019, 08:42 PM

Check in the street section for mods some of our members have done.

culcune · 10-08-2019, 08:45 PM

'Talk' to member Hellkitty above for starters. Have you posted down in the Street section? There were a few other Tao owners. More mini riders seem to be Vader owners, but a few of them know Tao bike and can steer you in the right direction; I believe some of the parts are compatible with both the Boom Vader and the Tao Hellcat. Member Red Crow Rides is a Vader owner, but seems to know a bit about the Tao when he was researching which bike to buy.

Kimberly · 10-08-2019, 11:45 PM

Thanks. I haven't been on the street section yet, only this one. Very new at this. So thanks in advance for your patience lol
