Just wondering if I was to build a bumper lift for the front wheel of my 250cc (YY250T-2 or MC-13-250) touring scooter weight close to 400#. And if it was to break down how far could it be pull (if Possible) by the back wheel or would the engine be cranking due to the drive belt at a speed of 50mph or less

thanks Alleyoop I would be doing the welding & cutting if needed and I would use my roketa parts to get the 50cc back up and running if this might take a lot time to do all the swapping around It might be better for me to wait till tcs gets there kits I'm just wanting to get out and ride all I can

I have a new 2013 Roketa Johnway YY250T-2 (MC-13-250) which I'm unstable when it comes to riding it so I was thinking about buying a Cheap 50cc trike like say the (Mojo tri008) for instances from megamotormadness and was wondering if the trike axle would be changeable to work on my Roketa then replacing the Mojo with the Roketa parts

Thanks to everyone posting but all I'm wanting to know if anyone on this forum has ever used or have the Treasure Coast Scooters & Things (Trike Kit) and how well it is built before I buy one and if it's worth the money it looks like what I would like to have for my (mc-13-250) which is the cfmoto I haven’t got $2,000. to $4,000 to buy the other kits that has been mention above I do need to convert mine due to my heart condition and c.o.p.d. haven't the strength to handle the two wheels like I though I could

Alleyoop: the fan use to constantly run when the engine was started so I put a switch inline to prevent the constant on and I have the tool above with the ratchet (shame on me didn’t think about that) but not for sure if that would work on the carb.I have is the one with the air mixture at the front of the throttle control be tight space as for the battery volts I wasn’t for sure what it should be at idle I was thinking it should have been 13 volts but I do know when I was using the battery that came with the scooter that wouldn’t hold a charge before I brought a new battery when you went to shut the scooter off by key or switch to shut it off it would keep cranking the engine until I unhooked one of the cables then when hooking the fully charged battery back up it would throw a heavy spark to kick out the bendix which I’m hoping that it didn’t do any damage to the alternator so far its starting and shutting down like it should.
Kz1000st Not for sure but I thinking the problem starts after the choke has been open for awhile I have set up fast idle when first starting the engine and turning it back down as the engine warmed up to its proper idle state took the carb back apart Saturday removing jets and blowing with air still clean as a whistle have not replaced the vacuum line yet that is my next project is to replace all vacuum line and try to locate a vacuum tester for checking the fuel pump (what would be the vac to the fuel pump and how much should the fuel pump output preasure be?) didn’t use seafoam but instead used sta-btl still on first tank of fuel also I have shut down the fan and let the engine almost all the way to the hot side it still rev up without crapping out only when trying to ride it
You all are so great for info I appreciate your help so much I try to do all I can by myself for I’ve been disable since 07 due to heart failure now on my second defibrillator/pacemaker and just wanting to try and enjoy my scooter why I can it just aggravating megamotormadness hasn’t reply with any help or parts being a new scooter never thinking I would have this much trouble (( THANKS again for the great help ))

well more help needed my friends after draining carburetor and replacing the fuel line from the fuel low-tension switch back to the carburetor thinking this was causing scooter to still flutter and die after the temp gauge gets about 1/8" above the ½ way mark or after about 5 miles of continuous riding I’m not thinking this is a valve problem anymore I do now have the valves to a light rattle have tried resetting air fuel mixture both ways still not helping (which I have to remove the the carb each time just to give it 1/8 turn) got the scooter set to where just touching the yellow start button it fires up probably less than a half crank I have notice that when I check the battery volts when it is at idle it only reads about 12.72 course all the lights our on (what should the normal volts be? My battery is a new duralast ETX9 the battery that came with the scooter would not even hold charge(bad out of the box THANKS MEGAMOTORMADNESS for your great help) anyone else have any other idea that could be causing this thing not keep running. Keep in mind you can give the scooter all kinds of hell until it gets to the temp above im beginning to think megamotormadness knows they sold me a lemon probably why they have never replied back

From: www.gekgo.com/trike300cc-t-5.htmlWE ARE CURRENTLY NOT SELLING THIS VEHICLE We are no longer selling ICEBEAR vehicles/Trikes. With many years of experience with the company ICEBEAR, we have found over and over again that there vehicles/Trikes have proved to be inferior to the point of being unacceptable. The company over the years have proved consistently over and over again that they are not interested nor committed to supporting there dealers to enable them to support there customers which in turn translates to extremely poor to no customer support. This means that you will purchase a vehicle from ICEBEAR or a participating dealer and spend $2,000.00 to $4,000.00 and within 30 to 60 days on average your vehicle will brake down. You will on average then expect without exception a waiting period of months, to years, to never getting parts nor support. We have also found that over the years it has been increasingly difficult to find repair shops through out the country that will accept ICEBEAR vehicles/Trikes for repair because of the lack of parts available and the fact that the parts that are available are the same inferior parts to begin with. We highly recommend that buyer beware. We apologies to our existing customers that we have yet been able to service you due to the lack of communication , service and parts that we have yet to receive from ICEBEAR. These comments are wholly from our experience and point of view. The failure rate of these vehicles are higher than should be expected not all customers have experienced these opinions. If you wish to speak to us on this matter we would be happy to.

:-/Just wondering if anyone else has had the new yy250t-1 all at once go into a wobble state all over the road running 50mph in the wind not the steering but the whole scooter liked to never got it back under control by tapping back brake I’ve been ridding motorcycles since the early 70’s and had never had this to happen is there something in adjustments that could cause this or is it just the nature of the scooter due to its small wheels or maybe just me (TIA)

I'm no mechanic (Just Ask Alleyoop & Bashan they have been a great help for me) on scooters but learning more & more I have the 2013 yy250t-2 or mc-13-250 engine which uses the carb. Above that alleyoop posted the hoses on mine are from the radiator thermostat output side all that I can figure out is that it heats up the electric choke on the carb. to open if this might help some
