Why is it important to change brake fluid? I only heard that if it gets to hot it can boil and contaminate it? Is this true?

Scooter junkys update Well there was enough baterie to start it today then the baterie died. Anywho also the clanking sounds like it is coming from the cvt? In the clutch to be exact if I had to guese have not got it of yet to inspect it yet. Also alley I checked the engine for play in the swing arm and on the exaust side there is play I am almost certain on the other side there is less play. That might be the problem? It did make a clicking sound on the exhaust side but I swear it is coming from the cvt? I will say it again it runs fine on the center stand gas idle what ever will ideal all day I believe untill it runs out of gas. I probley put a half gallon in so far and it was close to empty today probley have not ran it no more than 20 minits a scooter gas hog how about that. Once the scooters wheels are on the ground it does not what to go very good at all. Well that is all for now. Vespa cave tonight mabey?

Hey cyborg I will be trying to chew your ear of about vespas in general I am a big fan and stellas I have some questions for you are the vespa cave guy. I took of the top of the diafram when I had the carb of I did not see it I will have it off at some point again because the intake is shot.
I need to figure out why it will not run good on ground and stop jerking and making clunking noise.
Need to check motor mount yet swing arm bushings.
The baterie died darn.
The cvt need more info.
I am leaving the house soon got some things to attend to today but of the topic I have vespa junky questions.

Alley
The screw is for carb is left center on the other side of throttle close to intake and right beside where antifreeze goes into the engine.
In earlier post about cvt the belt always spins and the clutch bell does not rotate until you give it throttle it get clanky noise when you give it throttle.
I am very impressed so far with how this scooter is built it is a tank for scooters I have looked at.
The olny things I do not like about it are the drum brakes and no kick starter.
I will have a little time tomarrow to mess with it.
Thanks again.

Sounds like alley is pointing you in the right direction you probley going to need stock jets for your carb. To much fuel can not be burnt is giving you problems I think. I am no expert like them guys alley and bashan but scooter sounds like it is flooding it self out. Good luck in school and your scooter.

My scooter has a couple of light scratches barley noticeable on rear panel on one side was there when I got it. Other than that the mirrors have some scratches on it from scrapping brick trying to fit between a car and a house scrapping the house. That's about it for me but face fern I believe the second fall on your bike was also you fault since you were operating just like guitarman said. Nice try it's nice to hear you have been accident free for months now.

There are a couple good deals in there but the majesty is the best priced in my opinion. The reflex are fair prices I am interested in that scoot they are pretty pricy from all the ones I have seen for sale. I am not so sure about the aprilia not really sure never heard anything good or bad about them but seams to be a fair price. Good luck welcome to the club.
