Hello all! Well on June 18th I had my last back surgery (I hope). I haven't rode my Fashion since May, but did put 650 trouble free miles on it between March and the time I had to stop. So, the other day I said screw it, I have to take a short ride and did so.........man I missed it! Now, I noticed something I did notice before. When I accelerate from a stop or as I'm making a left turn I get this vibration? This is the only time I feel it. What could this be? Help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and its good to be back! Kracker

Could be the Clutch is slipping on you, bell inside could be a little rusty or the weights are hanging up on you. Alleyoop

No explanation needed. He used to own a Morphous but decided he wanted something he could actually ride without fear. So he bought something better.

Funny you say that.....my buddy has had more issues with his morphous then I have with any of my scooters. He has issues getting parts, or the dealer has to keep it longer because they have trouble getting parts.........screw that! He's looking at a Piaggio MP3. Useless scooter he says. I agree. Kracker

Kracker383, Yes take the Bell off and if you see the PADS glazed which I believe they will be just sand the glaze off and give the inside of the bell where the pads grab a little sanding as well. Alleyoop

Alleyoop Thank you sir, much appreciated! Can't wait to go riding full time again. Also since the back is a wreck, I wanna buy a 300cc Trike next.

OH please,please,please don't sand the bell...unless it has some deep scratches, you can use brake pad cleaner to remove the glaze on the bell, or kerosine. you can sand the shoes but please not the bell.
sometimes you disappoint me..LOL joke

Don't listen to anything LUKE says he only knows how to trailer his scoot. He never rides it just trailers it around. Alleyoop

If luke knew what he was talking about he would not have bought a Morpheus, now he has a second one he can't fix and is for sale.

As Alley said Sand the bell. We do it after spraying with brake clean to remove the dirt ect.
Luke has no idea what he is talking about, needs to stay off threads concerning repairs and advice, as his is useless
