I deliver fast food on the weekends for a local restaurant. Last Sunday they needed me to buy ice. I strapped on five 16lb bags, plus some icecream. At...
sorry to dig up this old thread, but I just got one of the 3-in-1 racks to go with my px seat, and just wanted to double-check on mounting it correctly. ...
I kind of like the Buddy 125 from Genuine, for its nimbleness and reported peppiness. But that Blur does nothing for me. Too crotch-rocketish, even if it is...
I lost my brake lights and found the right brake switch in the handle popped out. When you squeeze the brake handle it pushes in a small button that turns on...
John, On my 2002 Chetak, I also have had no noticeable improvement when disabling TRICS, if anything the scooter runs better with TRICS enabled. (Perhaps...
Hey Carlos, I was the one that sent you the email below and I think I sent the pics with that set up. I have had mine mounted up for a couple of months with no...
I live in Costa Rica and have a Bajaj 3 wheel, 173cc 4 stroke. I bought the first one in Costa Rica. Have had it about 2.5 years. Not to many of them in Costa...

I have been commuting to work lately, a healthy 69 mile RT on the 101 here between San Diego and Oceanside. Just last night, the engine started cutting out...
I would only suggest making sure that there is some 'slop' in the gear selector linkage. It's been pointed out to me in the past that you need some slack in...
Occasionally WOT on my Legend I fumble going into third. I think there's something with the spacing that isn't "catching up" with my quick shifting technique,...
Julie, Poping out of gear can be caused by shift cables adjusted with too little slack. There has to be about 1/2" to 3/4" freeplay rotation at the left grip....
Tried to mount it up, but the seat-pin hole was off by about 1/8" gonna either grind it out a bit or drill it depending on what tools I can borrow tomorrow....
Hey Julie! What color is your scoot? I've seen a red chetak passing through Encinitas a few times while I'm on foot. If that's you, I'll yell at you to pull...
got it mounted, pics here: http://corycyr.com/articles/view_page?name=chetak_rack I'll get pics of it fully loaded later today, but my first impressions are...
My wife's scooter has the Cupini 3 in 1 rack and the PX seat. I agree, the mounting bracket is a little "dodgy". MaryBeth's bracket began cracking in...
The mounting bracket lasted about 2 years before cracking through. The repair I did makes it much stronger. There are pics of my wifes and my Chetaks in the...
Yeah, after some riding, it feels like there's some "bounce" in it. I used a lock washer below the pin and a flat washer below the plate to keep it level with...
Two questions: 1. I have a pair of dog levers from scooterworks - http://www.scooterworks.com/Lever_Dog_Leg_Style_-_Alum_P2025.cfm Will they work on my '06...
Hello All, I'm looking into buying a Chetak but have a couple of questions first. 1. I'm 5'2" - saw that some riders were short too (they didn't state their...
I fit a px seat on my chetak and -- I think you CAN keep the stock wheel carrier, you just may not want to. The chetak seat is extra long, so when you fit...
A related question about seat mods: is it possible to attach a vespa seat strap (http://www.scomo.net/product_info.php/cPath/50_172_176/products_id/2235) to...
Thank you everyone for the great feedback. I thought it was pretty funny that the GTS 250 was mentioned because I sat on one and really liked it. But yeah, ...
Long time scooter newb needs advice. I know this is probably a weekly occurrence in this forum and you are probably tired of responding to it, and I don't...
I have a 2006 Chetak that I've been pretty happy with overall. I enjoy having a four-speed instead of an automatic. However, working the clutch and shifting...
Erik- I say Yes! (to almost everything) The Bajaj's are truly reliable. I have never owned a Vespa, but I hear that if you own both, you land up driving the...
What is the purpose of the seat strap? My Chetak is the first scooter I've owned, and given the fact that it doesn't come with a seat strap, I'm clueless....
