Fubar, Yes, I noticed my scooter being louder after installing the sliders and removing all the grease and old rollers. Not a lot louder but more noise.
CCPROF, I clocked out exactly 3 miles from my home using my car which has an electric odometer as there was a landmark which made it easy to track. I went home and did the exact same trip on my scooter and the scooter clocked 2.9 miles. So it is off 1/3 of a tenth of a mile. As far as mph I used a GPS and compared GPS with Speedo on scooter at 20, 30, 40, and 50 MPH. It's not easy looking at GPS then the speedometer at the same time while riding, but both read the same or close to the same. I reside on the coast of South Carolina so there are no hills to speak of. The land is flat as are the roads. It is very easy to get up to say 45 mph and keep that speed steady for miles and miles without having to play with the throttle.
