As Stan says, charge it fully. (12 hours) I short-cut this and paid the price. The battery would never hold a charge very well. A float charger (trickle) is...

Hello, Thanks Sparky for the Key info....I would like to ask another question. One of my Tank 150 scooter's left front handle bar mirror became loose. I...
As I understand it, the Tank 150 only has 1 fuse. It's in the underseat compartment on the small wire leading off the positive post of the battery, and yes,...
Okay, so here's my deal: In 2001 I bought a Brank, Spanking New Kymco People 50. It was expensive. Like $2,800 out the door. Everybody told me I was crazy....
