Tire pressures should always be kept up from 30 to 32 psi.  Check this every time your at the petrol station. Clean your scooter with Mr Sheen, this will look after the body and chrome work very well..  Keep the sheen away from your tires and handle grips.. When starting the scooter first time in the day, always pull out the choke lever, turn the fuel lever to the ON position which is facing up towards the rider and kick the kick start in a stabbing motion. Do not use the accelerator until the scooter fires up, then incorporate the throttle at the same time. After 10 seconds, push the choke lever back in whilst throttling the accelerator to warm up the engine. This process should take you 5 mins. --------------------------------------------------- Images: http://vespaguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/20140621_143451_resized-300x168.jpg --------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- Post date: 2015-09-22 07:59:16 Post date GMT: 2015-09-22 07:59:16 Post modified date: 2015-09-22 07:59:16 Post modified date GMT: 2015-09-22 07:59:16 ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Export of Post and Page as text file has been powered by [ Universal Post Manager ] plugin from www.gconverters.com
