Nice scoot man looks good with nice contrast, I like it. How do you like the trunk? I've been thinking of building a flat rack for mine since i haul boxes and computer towers from time.
How does it Handel? It seems it runs just fine with all those miles. Remember to use good oil, if i can make a recommendation I hear very, VERY, good thing about the lesser known (at least to me) schaeffer oil.
Apparently schaeffer oil is good stuff and last a tad bit longer than normal oil. Now that I think about I need to putting that stuff in my scoot.

I am not sure what schaeffer oil is, so I'll have to google it and see where its sold. I've been running Rotella 15w-40 in it since new and haven't had any problems yet. It handles real well and rides really nice in the rain to having such small tires. I take the trunk off quite a bit and haul my bicycle on the back of it to work and ride on the trails we have here during lunch. and short of my bike being sorta wide, it handles that just fine. I have a quick front wheel that I remove and secure on the middle of the bicycle during transport so its not as wide. I didn't think I would like this scooter when I bought it, but the more i have it the more I love it. It's a hard working little machine really when you think of all it can do with only 150cc's  |

I hear rottela is some pretty decent stuff i also run rotella as well. I'm wanting to try schaeffer. I told my friend who used to be scooter dealer that scooter were a joke. I know drive mine almost all season of the year, even in winter from time to time.

Sorry to hear about your aunt . I think u have 4200 kilometers on your scooter which would = 2609 miles ,not 4200 miles . The outside of your speedometer is reading kilometers.

Yes - I wish the bigger numbers were MPH instead, but the odometer is infact in Miles not KM's.
It's usually within 1 mile of accuracy on my 30 mile ride to work to. My TomTom shows it as 30.7 miles and the scoot will log 29.8
