Thanks, rosiemoto and Alleyoop . I'm pretty pleased with it ! A $500 scooter with $4000 worth of our brain, blood, sweat and tears into it, lol! That does include purchase and registration costs though. The only parts that I replaced are the seat, tires , rear tail lamp , brake calipers and lines, and bearings. Aside from tiny parts. Everything else was cleaned, vinegar soaked,wire wheeled, sanded and painted. BOY, am I glad that, that part is OVER. I've got a photo diary and the sciatica to PROVE this, Alleyoop! LOL! I can probably say that I am more familiar with this scoot than I ever thought I would be this soon, for sure! Rosie, Alley is helping me ( Of course ! )through a "No start" condition right now. I took it outside the apartment to start it but, nada at the switch Wiring or something went awry along the way and electrical is NO my forte, IF I have one. So back into the dining room it came, lol! But, I have faith, we'll get her rolling on some pavement very soon!

Hahaha! richardv ,. I don't know, after all of the years I worked on my own cars, I never could really get my peanut around it but, just enough to allow me to get in too deep !
