I know it's not a scooter, but it's a hell of a lot closer to one than the motorcycle it claims to be. :) With it's 2 stroke motor, I know I'm going to need...
I have bad news for you. Your "X-friend" has a moral obiligation to pay for damages to your bike. Legally, unless you have a written contract, you are...
You might try a couple of light taps with an impact driver...the shock when it hits will probably break up any corrosion locking the screw. When you hit an...
congrats on the new bike. Honda Single's of the 60's like the Cub 90 are 4-strokes, not 2- strokes. No mixing oil in the gas for you. I bought a CT90, the ...

So my bike is back together at the garage and ready to go, but they are concerned at the noise the gearbox is making...'like a bag of spanners (wrenches)'. I ...
I'd like to put 2 more cents into this discussion. What David says about Eric's legal woes is probably correct as far as it goes - I don't know as I'm not a...

Barry, no it's there when ticking over in neutral. Given that I've been having trouble getting it into gear, maybe I should have suspected something, but given...
Ian, You missed Barry's point. Start the bike up. Let it idle. Listen to the engine rattle. Now pull in the clutch. Listen to the engine rattle. Does the pitch...
If your Vespa speedo system is similar to a Vespa P150X, then usually it is the nylon or plastic gear in which the speedo cable bottom end fits into that is...
Yes, I know, a judgement plus a buck will get you a cup of coffee, but there are ways to collect. You could "dumpster dive" and find his bank account number....
John, thanks for that. The nearest you describe is a rattle at the back (pulling the clutch has never made a difference) pointing to a selector train problem....
... or, if you beat the living shit out of yr tranny, you could even have a missing tooth on a gear... sounds flakey, but i took 3 teeth off 4th in my 210...
i got rear-ended by a ford F-350 with heavy duty steel bumpers one time (his bumper met the top of my trunk) he didnt pay, i took him to court (small claims) i...
