You take your CVT cover off and start your scooter with the electric start, but the starter bendix needs the CVT cover to stay in place, so your starter bendix flies off your bike in a random direction, possibly striking somebody in the face This happened last summer. Awkward scooter moments, anyone?

You need to hold the bendix in place like this a piece of wire will do it. Alleyoop

putting it on the side stand, walking away and it rolls forward because of a imperceptable decline. off the stand and on its side it goes.

You forget to put the sidestand down and start to get off and the scooter starts to fall on you.

His side stand isn't worth crap! His bike has taken a plunge because of that stupid thing, so now he will only put it on the center stand!

Bought new riding boots. Pulled up in a parking lot. Put the side stand down. Unfortunately, the tread pattern in the bottom of my boot exactly fits the little ball end on my side stand. When I pull my leg back up, it raised the side stand. I lean the bike over to park and it continues on it's way. Red faced, but can't really feel that it's entirely my fault.

I've been pretty lucky with not having any bloopers. The only thing is the milk craight on the back is kinda imbarising get a lot of complements. Also I park one time at right aid and my kick stand spring brock so I rode it to a new destination with foot hanging off the bike.
That was a 3 dollar fix and easier to do than I though put it of for months. My bike kill the engine when you put down the kick stand so it took a minite or five to figure it out.
