Has anyone been able to rig up an add on or some aftermarket add on for passenger foot pegs on a vino 125? Sure seems like there is very little room for feet...
I'm the newest member of "The lost muffler bolt" club. Actually mine sheared off. Scooter at dealer now to have bolt drilled out. Cripes. I bought the scoot...
Welcome to the club! It may be a good idea to remind the person that does your repairs to put a new exhaust gasket in before bolting the exhaust back up. It...
I've ordered some....there is a 10mm bolt in each of the passenger footrests, and that is one of the standard sizes. I figure they should bolt right on,...
I am buying a used Vino. I checked it out yesterday but the engine wouldn't turn over. The lady said the spark plugs need to be changed. But the yamaha...
It's difficult to go into a dealer's service department and tell them how to do their job. But if they're smart they will be very careful with the re-assembly...
Is it a Vino 125? An engine that cranks but won't turn over may have several causes. If it's been sitting for a very long time it's possible the carburetor...
I spilled my Vino 125 and it slid into a curb. It now pulls to the right when I ride it. I know that this is wishful thinking but is there some way to...
The front end is similar to that of a motorcycle and it's possible you might be able to re-align it if the forks have twisted out of plane relative to the...
The first time I lost my muffler bolt they replaced it with one they found in their shop that was stainless steel and much more substantial, and also just...
Which post, thread, or photo are you referring to? There are some casting flaws that have the appearance of cracks, but haven't amounted to anything beyond...
I wasn't sure what was being talked about, i just joined the club and seen a few post about casting and exhaust cracks. I was a little concerned because I will...
Thanks for the advice, Tony. It is worse than I first thought -- the muffler is cracked. Parts on order so I'll miss the funnest long weekend. ... them ... ...

I had never tried the groups post "search", but found it to be a great resource; especially for new members looking for seatcovers, a trunk, info on MPG, that...
i just noticed that my rear tire has absolutely no center groove remaining.. the front however has plenty and would easily pass the lincoln penny test.. im...
That is not unusual; most of the scooter's weight is on that back tire so it would obviously wear faster. I've been through two rear tires now. on the S-83s,...
steve, how many miles had you logged when you changed the rear? i believe the s83 is about 1/4 inch smaller in dia. than the factory tire.. i had them side by...
... The original tire lasted about 6,000 miles before I swapped out both tires for S-83s; the S-83 lasted about 5,000 miles before the center of the tire went...
i joined the stella yahoogroup and visited the stella website. it seems to be a lot of scoot for the price.. tons of after market performance enhancements too....
I can only say that I rode with both ET4 and a 2001 Vespa P200, both are in my scooter group when I go riding with them. In short.. both Vespas owners were...
I would be interested in your findings . I too am looking at the two of these scoots. I am leaning toward the stella because of reports of low power on the...
I ride my Vino with an assortment of Vespas and Stellas. The ET4s seem to be similar in performance and comfort to our Vinos. The Stella is significantly...
sign up for the stella yahoo group.. http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/StellaScooter/messages i asked the same question there. consensus is the vino is...
Hawk, The stock rear tire on the Vino 125 doesn't have a center groove. There are some depressions offset from the center that might be used as wear...
wow tony, that is amazing. ive had the scoot for 5k miles and "assumed" they were the same tire.. special forces wont want me as a forward scout any longer. ...
Hawk, When I looked at the Cheng Shin tire specifications quite a long time ago I couldn't see a reason the "front" tire couldn't be used at the rear. The...
Hello, I just placed a deposit for my 2006 Vino 125 & I was told by the dealer that there is a $200 charge for freight & assembly; does this sound right? I'm...
