I'm a amusement tech. I have worked on all most anythings that take money, jukebox, pinball,video games. I left home at 13yr and never went back except to say hi. I 'm 65 i still work on amusement. I moved from Covington Tennessee 10yr ago to Fl. I put a Harley repair shop in . I did that for 8yr. I moved to another location in FL and still work on Harleys and just about everything else from tvs to lawn mowers.I was an pilot. By the way , the man from Jackson Th. I rented a plain there one time and crashed and crashed it in Henderson. In other words do fly with me. I have been riding bikes for years. I have been in almost ever state on a Harley. I always enjoy buying old troubled bikes an learning to repair them to the best of my ability. I am so glad i found this forum. I'ts nice to see so many people back to what we need to get back to helping each other. Thanks to all of you for helping. You are appreciated. Thanks Paul !!!!!! O by the way if i miss spell anything remember 9th grade is all if have except ojt.

You are the man . Thank you! I'm used to working on Harley s. It sure looks like it going to be a lot of work to keep this thing up. My wife loves this scooter. It is really nice to see the help y'all are giving people. It looks like you could put the better parts off a Yamaha or Honda and they would last longer. Thanks Paul!!!!!!!!

I found a vacuum leak at the carb i thought but was not the problem. I sprayed water on vacuum lines no difference. there are 4 places fore hoses on carb one is fuel in next is at the bottom of the float bowel . There are two right together with nothing on them. I looked at the vacuum line chart .I shows them to be the #2 both going to intake. There is no place there for the hose to hook.I pulled the plug it is dark brown a little black with some red on it. I think the carb needs to be jetted.I'm taking the variate r apart . What weights and parts should i use? We are on flat ground hear in fl. It ran good till it started slowing down. It still runs good up to 45 but that is wide open. Thank for y'all s help Paul I'm going on and do everything while i have the plastics off. Any help will be appreciated!!!!

Me and my wife were out for a ride. The Mp-250A-JCL Roketa she was riding was running good. She was running 65MPH all of a sudden the scooter lost power. It would only run 45. we pulled over , it idled smooth but had no power. It cranked right. Still no power.There is no water in the oil. Antone got any ideas. Thanks Paul
