I second the Continental Zippy 3's. Great all around tire and make you feel safe, well, much safer than the Nyla-Crappers. Those tires are squirrly as they...
One thing to check is the position of the fuel tap. Do not rely upon the printed demarcations on the body of the scooter. turn the tap all the way until it...

Jason, Were you able to shift into other gears once back into neutral, or does it seem to get stuck in every gear, and does it seem to happen every time? I am...
Joe, Thanks for the reply. I think its certainly the cluch but I have adjusted the slack by tighting the pinch bolt at the end of the clutch cable. I...
Could this be the loose clutch bolt thing? I believe that it manifests with unpredictable clutch engagement/disengagement. Is the scoot making any weird sounds...
Not the clutch cable bolt, the main bolt that holds the entire clutch assembly together (i.e. to the rest of the engine). It requires some fairly major...
