the countdown begins.. 7 days to delivery (250cc 54b)... I'm accumulating scoot stuff for this scoot already.. new multimeter.. voltmeter.. cell phone holder.. new weather cover.. fake alarm LED.. ( will disconnect the attached alarm/remote start) ... now I'm down to fluids.. which i can get in moments notice... and LEDs for lights.. signals... this is where i need help now..
can someone supply specific LEDs info product number.. for headlight turn signals and brake light? .. something i can go to eBay with and order there?

first you need to become a registered member i think... on the home page.. once that is verified.. then you should be able to start a new THREAD... or a post...

my first scoot was a tank 150... a nightmare.. i had 2 batteries i rotated every other day.. it was that bad but i still managed 7000miles on it... 2nd scoot was a pegasus 150.. big tires... ran like a champ.. then started died overnight.. got it fixed.. then i changed the oil and forgot to tighten it up good... and the darin plug loosened and .. one burned out engine.. ugh... still 8000 problem free miles.. i can't complain... this time i am amped up.. 250cc with a swift looking design.. the reflex design is sweet... now if i can find a linhai 250cc manual...

i did have a *parts scooter* with my last scoot... i never had to use it.. but I'm considering buying a parts scoot again... in mean time i have ordered cdi R/R and a voltmeter... any suggestions on other critical parts? tires i will simply buy when the time comes.. also.. ay suggestions on this remote?... I've read far too much about this remote causing problems... battery drain...

i have bought a scooter from this dealer once before.. i do have confidence in him that he will check it out well.. but i will still take it for a check ride.. I'm learning a LOT from this site.. it should make things go easier.. I'm inclined to go to a scooter graveyard and get some reflex parts ahead of time.. i like the reflex amber turn signal covers

good morning! I've pulled the trigger and ordered a roketa 250cc 54b through my dealer... this is my 3rd scoot.. fingers crossed that its a decent working scoot. I've noticed this much.. the engines used seem to be good.. the fit and fitness quality has improved markedly in past 6 years... the electrical is still a weak point... I'm reading up on how to avoid some of the electrical problems.. i may order spare parts... regulator.. cdi.. solenoid.. get a voltage meter... I'm very impressed with the design.. seems like rocket .. et al... have stuck with the 2008 reflex knockoff design.. and hopefully they have improved the quality over 6 years.. more later.. scoot due january 6 or so
