It is ashame Renner that happened.. Sounds like the exact thing that happened to me.. Its funny when they say they "ALWAYS" answer the phone.. What a joke. This company is by far the worst that I have ever dealt with and would hope that NO ONE buys from them again..

I got a flat while riding because the Valve went. I replaced the Valve, but the Tire will NOT take air when trying to fill it.. The tire will not pop onto the rim.. if that makes sense. Could the rim be bent from when I was riding as it went flat?? Any suggestions on how to get this tired to seat on the rim to fill it up??

Krichard, sorry that all happened to you.. Im sure you talked to Will and probably Betty.. See the issue is they are like middle men.. You call them or order stuff from then and they go to OTHER companies to get leftover parts and scooters at a cheap price and then sell it to the public.
As in my original post I ordered a tire and rim from them and PAID UPFRONT for it.. Only to find out that I was dealing with someone in California for the rim and tire when Barco is in Texas.. So they are like I said the middle man... And it seems there stuff they get are leftover cheap stuff and if anything happens to anything you go thru the company they get it from.. they DO NOT HAVE A PARTS DEPT.. The person they are telling you to call is the place they bought the scooter from to sell to you. And I know what its like to play phone tag with them.. And forget about emails, they don't like to email back.. I hope this works out for you and you get this scooter fixed.. If not I would see into contacting the Texas Attorney General and their lemon laws.. I hope you have all the contact info and or emails still...

cool.. yeah read myself they are reliable and love the 2 year unlimited mileage warranty... Just concerned with the speed hoping it gets at least 65-70 cruising speed. and the 10 inch back tire concerns me a little..

I am going to buy a brand new 2009 CF Moto fashion for 2000 from a dealer here locally. Just wondering if this is worth it or not. It comes with a luggage trunk as well and is new with a 2 year warranty.
Does anyone own this scooter that has an opinion either way.. Please post if you do..

Bashan.... Ok. here is my situation.... I took the carb off the scooter.. took it apart, it is clean, float is good.. Ok. from the gas tank to the filter to the petcock gas is flowing freely.. from the petcock to the carb when i took it off the carb and try to start it.. (someone told me to do this.. The gas spits out..).. So I put the carb back on the scooter and hooked everything back up. Then I loosen the gas cap.. tried to start it and it wouldn't turn over.. just revved. Then I tighten the gas cap and it tried to start but just didn't... So Not sure what my next move is.. I have replaced so much stuff on this dam scooter. Im hoping its not the petcock now that I have to replace.. All I know like I said.. It was starting right up and running pretty good.. Then it sat and now I can't get it to start and run..

How can you adjust this if the scooter doesn't stay running?? Is there a way to give it more fuel with the scooter off??

Ok.. this Devil bike is at it again.... I had it running.. it was running pretty ok... Then it started leaking oil a bit (Brand new Engine).. that I got cleared up I hope.. So its been sitting for a bit.. Now When I tried to start it, it starts then dies right away and then forget it.. I cant start it.. it just tries to turn over.. I added some new gas about a gallon and half and some seafoam.. And still nothing.. Not sure how it can go from running to now not starting.. Its an ever ending battle with this scooter.. Im actually trying to sell it now so in order to sell it, I have to get it started again.. Any suggestion on what it can be...
Is there a way to check if the Carb is getting fuel.. The fuel filter seems to be fill.. So not sure what else to check..

Don't know how many times I have to warn everyone on here about T-Motorsports.. They are the worst company known to man. The owner Michael Teng is a piece of garbage like his company. They don't give a crap about nothing about selling garbage and once its paid for its paid for.. I again WARN EVERYONE... Do NOT buy from T-Motorsports, gold3388gold, TMShelmet.. They are all the same company on Ebay..

Its the side with the pistons.. They are opened but not going back in.. Maybe they don't go in.. I dont know.. The thickness on the rotor is 3mm which i think if standard. It looks like the brakes squeezes but doesn't release back.
How do I shim the brakes?? Maybe that will help.. Just another thing on this possessed scooter...

My rear disk brakes are keeping my rear wheel from turning freely. I took the brake caliper off and then opened up the piston.. put it back on and before I squeezed the brake I check to see if the wheel would move and it moved a little. Then after squeezing the brake a few times till it felt hard, I noticed again that the piston was not opening up that its tight on the rotor.. Any suggestions on how to adjust this so the wheel moves freely?? I started the scooter, revved it a little then it stops abruptly because of the wheel not moving freely. Anyone?? Anyone? Buhler??

Ya see Sprocket that in lies the dilemma.. Seems as though our wonderful T-Motorsports or whom ever they buy these engines from decided to buff that out.. So in turn there is nothing there. So we have to find out the hard way what size engine it is.. And from what i read that would mean measuring the piston.. Which I really don't want to do... Wonder if there is a way to avoid having to remove that head and measure.. hmm. Well untill then I have to hope this is at least a 125cc if not the 150cc.. Just hope its not a 50cc.. But hopefully in a couple of weeks i have my license and im on my way..

Like I said Bong.. Really haven't done any MODS to the engine.. I did change out the rollers.. I put sliders in. Other then that the Unifilter was the only other thing and that was because as I said the stock air filter wouldn't fit on this engine.. So that is pretty much all I have done
What is the CVT mods?? Somewhere down the line I will be updating stuff till then.. Just want to get it running, then go get my Motorcycle license and drive away..
