Even Honda's have the same problem.  This is common with all ABS
braking systems.  It has nothing to do with the price!

Hey!  I just ordered one of these from Valley Scooters!  Any comments?

I read your profile today, I thought I would drop you a line and hope to become
your friend! Check my personal page:

I have a Lance Touring edition and in the manual it mentions it has a
kickstand cutoff switch.  Mine happens to not work and I can start it
when the kickstand is down but you may want to check if yours has that
switch that is working intermittently.

I have a fairly new Lance Vintage 150 and I am having some issues with
the electric start.  One minute it worked fine, the next I can't even
get it to turn over.  The battery is fine, the scooter will start via
the kickstart, but the starter won't engage.

I have made sure to properly account for all of the interlocks (i.e.
rear brake on, etc.).  I seem to remember having an intermittent
problem similar to this with another scooter some time back.  Has
anyone experienced anything like this.  Any ideas?   If this were an
old bar, I would go bang on the starter motor - but I doubt it has to
do with the motor itself.  My gut tells me it is either a switch or
interlock issue.

Thanks in advance.

I am having some problems with my under seat lock on a Strada RX8.  I
put the key in the lock and turn it and it doesn't seem to pull the
cable to pop the seat.  Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this
problem?

Thank you

I have a strada 150ce that won't give 100% power on throttle. Even at
low throttle can feel it hitching, missing. Any suggestions on
repairing this problem.

Try this, It is for Lance products but they are very simular.

What oil belongs in the gear box of the Linhai? Common sence and dealer
say gear oil, manual does not say anything, the original oil in the
gearbox looks nothing like gear oil and more like motor oil. Who can
help?

A few problems these scooters have:
1. All the chrome on the scooter is not exactly highest quality:
rusting away. Parts need to be removed and rechromed.
2. One of the issues I encountered riding the scooter: if you brake
relatively hard using the front brake more than the rear, the bike dips
forward and the top of the fork hits the fender. Very annoying for
several reasons:the fender is getting destroyed and anytime it happens
it makes a terrible noise. I wonder if there is a way to tighten up the
front shocks to eliminate the problem. The rear brake is very sluggish
on these scooters: you have to squeese it very hard to make the machine
slow down.

I received my 2006 (new) scooter on 3/5/2008.  It arrived, as stated
in an earlier post on the 300cc, in a metal framework on a metal
pallet in a cardboard shroud.  It had no damage.  We had it assembled
and running in an afternoon.  The weather turned nasty, so we have
only 13 miles on it at this point.  It runs great and feels good.  No
problems so far.

Received on 9/05/07 on a metal crate with a cage built around it-
scooter came without any damage whatsoever, but to remove the cage and
to take the bike of the crate is not an easy task -you definitelly need
an xtra pair of strong hands- this scooter is really heavy. Did not
find any loose bolts/nuts, except the light switch under the seat was
hanging loose. Scooter is assembled except for the mirrors and the
windshield. Distributor did not provide any instructions on how to put
them on the  bike. If you dont have mechanical background it is going
to be really challenging on putting the windshield on. Plus the holes
in the plexiglass don't line up with the mounts. Mirrors are easy-just
screw in to the master brake cylinders. The antifreeze definitely needs
changing-the colour of the factory antifreeze is beyond description
plus it has loads of silicon-like clumps in it. The bike has a design
flow-rear fender only covers the back of the wheel, in the front all
road crap is being thrown on to the starter, air filter, etc. On the
bright side the scooter has plenty of power and feels solid.

I just received mty new Rocketa MC54B scooter, how do you drain cooling
system? Thank you motogun
