Just Drove It Home

I picked up my scooter today. I had some problems with it dieing when I stopped at stop lights. I took it back and had them increase the idle. The idle is not very smooth on this scooter.

I found out the hard way that you have to hold the break lever in if you want to start it.

The gas mileage seems to be as advertised: 75 Mpg. I will put some more accurate numbers up as I use it a bit more.

One interesting thing about the fit of the scooter. The ring where the mirrors connect to the handle bars can be moved back and forth a bit even when these rings are tightly secured.

It looks like the scooter maxes out at 50MPH with me on it. I am 6'2" 225 Pounds.

The ride of the scooter seems to be nicer than my older Chetak. The Cheng Shin C922 tires are much better starter tires than the tires that came on my Chetak.
