If it is when you first start riding your scooter it might not be warmed up. Other than that I would say you need to adjust slightly your idle screw. Try to get the great stinky to answer some of your questions he's an expert with these small bikes.

That's a bummer sorry to hear that hopefully that will be a good lesson learned they are machines and do need attention. Sorry that happened oil is cheap compared to engine replacement. I would think putting a new engine in is easier than a rebuild. But some of these other guys on this sight can help you with all your questions when the time comes.
Good luck.

Don't quote me but the lines I think you can get from like an auto zone. But the great stinky might no a better place and more direction on your question. Good luck though I am impressed on how many miles are on that how many times have you had to change the belt in it?

That's a bummer Dave c sorry that that didn't work out for you. The only thing possible I think you can do is possibly put bigger hydraulics on it. But no one is perfect why not just return it and do some more research. If you can't use it its just taken up dead space and a hole in the wallet use the money after a return towards something that will work for you.

Pull in the rear brake lever. Also make sure your kick stand doesn't have a kill switch on it also make sure your kick stand isn't screwing up. Something to check at least. I would wait for alleyoop though he has a lot of knowledge on scooters. Good luck though. Wow brazil is it flat or hilly there?

The stellas are pretty rad I looked at them a little they also have a gear shifter for the gears without a clutch. They look like the old vespa. And very similar to the puma valentine. I bet that scoot has a lot of pickup from the get go huh. They are a 150 right? Have fun riding is the stella also oil injected or straight gas mixture.

Hey this d ruben has like 150 dollars into a scooter so far to run around that is great. All you have to do is spend more money in gas than what you have in the scooter and your in like flin. Sounds like 50 or so fill ups if you have a 1 gallon tank.

I put a whoping 60 miles on my scooter today you guys inspire me. I had to pull of the road a couple of times to let cars pass. No close calls though safe and productive day. I even stoped at a motorcycle shop and looked at a bigger scooter the Yamaha morphis. I am thinking this is what luke rides they said they could take couple thousand of sticker price.
I like my scooter but would like something with a little more power though. The under the seat storage area was nice could put a small fishing rod in the with some tackle. No rack on morphis though so no lawn chair at the park.
My scooter gets like 70 miles to the gallon I was told 90 oh well better than any vehicle with 4 wheels right. Hope all are riding safe and enjoying the weather it's great here in Pittsburgh today.
