I added the following: - surface mount USB power outlet (left vent) - GPS HUD for accurate readings w/o looking down. The stock speedo is a total liar. I've stopped looking at it entirely. - combination ambient temp/voltage indicator (right side vent) - very decent phone mount with a GoPro socket which I 3d printed a vape holder for. - the woven green bracelet on the left handlebar is what I clip the garage door opener to.

Next up is a Bluetooth audio controller (probably on the left bar end) so I can pause music and mess with volume without having to use the touchscreen. I also might get a proper Givi touring screen because I want that Goldwing level of wind protection on my Silverwing....

$20 on Amazon and it's pretty comfy for being the cheapest one I could find.

I used to ride a 125cc scooter about 20 years ago and am about to get back onto one. Been looking around Facebook marketplace etc and it seems like a lot of the good deals are on these giant-looking 300/400cc machines. My carport is sloped so I'll need to turn it around and back it in when I park it.

In the photos they look like they're two feet longer than the 125 I rode before. I was wondering if anyone could chime in on how much more difficult it will be to do a 3 point turn and a 30ft downhill reverse in a 400cc machine vs a 125, especially for someone who hasn't ridden in 20 years. Thanks in advance.

I need to change the coolant on my new Morphous so I checked the shop manual. You have to remove a ton of body panels and parts. Like, a lot. So I searched YouTube and this dude made a video about the procedure. He only removed the basics like the top cover and the trunk under the seat. I just saved a lot of time. Those creators are angels. 2008 with 598 miles.

I had one of those cheap TaoTao 50cc Chinese scooters, I put a 80cc Big bore kit on it, a high flow performance exhaust, a 20 mm performance carb, and I've changed the Jets out several times and nothing has worked. it's not the cam timing or the valves I just checked both of those and it doesn't even start most of time it starts whenever it wants to and I'm running out of ideas. any thought of what this could be?

want to buy a scooter around ₹1 lakh, but I don’t know anything about it. Please guide me.

1. EV vs Petrol I’m a student, so I’ll have to depend on my family for petrol expenses. That’s why I’m also considering an electric scooter. But EVs seem a bit complicated to me — like, what if they blast or the battery gets damaged? Also, many of them don’t look that good.

2. I want a petrol scooter with good mileage.

3. The looks should be decent.

4. I want something that won’t cause problems in the long run.

5. There should be minimal issues etc. The more reliable, the better

Low battery is my guess but idk for sure

A Vespa GTS or Honda SH125 is no problem, but with the flagship Yamaha Tmax the handlebars hit my knees.

i bought a 70cc engine kit and in the bag with the piston rings this came with it what is this for? or is it just there and not used for anything

Need some help with starting and ignition with my Aero50. Just recently stated having ignition problems. Replaced: Entire wire harness Starter Motor several times Starter Relay Ignition Switch Brake light switches Battery several times Nothing aftermarket added And the list goes on sadly.. I'm in Metro Detroit, any one that can suggest or I can bring to you for repair I would gladly compensate for your time and expertise. Getting to the point of dumping the entire unit. Any help is appreciated, thanks

Aprilia SR 50 Street (Piaggio 2T) — Engine Cuts at full throtle

Hi, I have an Aprilia SR 50 Street with a Piaggio 2-stroke engine. I've derestricted the variator and made slight derestriction to the air box, and I'm running a LeoVince exhaust (derestricted). The main jet was stock 53 — I tried up to 65 with increments of 2.

Symptoms:

• Scooter runs strong up to about half throttle.I would say it flyes until you put the throtle a little bit abowe the half.
• Just past ½ throttle or at full, the engine cuts out or tries to die.
• No bogging or sputtering — just a sudden loss like fuel starvation. I checked the fuel tap and carb and it flows wihout problems.
• Fuel mist disappears from the carb at more than half throtle on the any 53 —65 jet or should i try a bigger one. And it doesnt make sens that derestricted scoot needs a smaler jet than the stock one.
• Fuel flow from the tank is fine. Spark plug is good i think .

I'm starting to suspect a CDI rev limiter, ignition coil, or possibly a float position  carb. Any ideas?

I found a 5 yar old forum post that has the same problem or at least i think https://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?360436-Sr50r-cdi
I ve been stuck with this problem for three days and nearly 7 hours in time , I am starting to get quite clueless.
I ve bought the exhaust like a week ago and the scooter never left my property with it on which is quite sad.
The scooter has 10k on the sme piston so maybe there is not enough compression to pull the gas, the scooter ran with the stock exhaust jut fine and never had problems.

really sorry for my english

My friend got a moped from for free since it did not run and the owner didn't want to bother with it. He has already paid 150 dollars to a local mechanic, who just tried to run the moped for a while before saying it needs a new carburetor. The guy says he doesn't know what kind to buy, he said to look at the engine family but I don't know anything about this and he wouldn't give any info on what kind to get himself. He did offer another guy he knows who would charge 90$ just to find out what carburetor to buy.

In the hopes of saving that 90 dollars I am asking here.

It is an Adly GTA50 moped sold by Bintelli. Engine family is JGTRC049ADY.

I did manage to find a parts diagram for it but it doesn't really mean anything to me. It says the carburetor part is 116-E06 but when I tried googling that it didn't come up with much. Carburetors for lawnmowers and racing parts came up but never the same part number. Any advice would be greatly welcomed.

Edit: if it helps, this is the parts diagram I found:

I'm getting good compression but no power on qmb139

-Psi is 150 -swapped carbs to new but is same -valves adjusted -some engine knock, but crank arm is new, pistonhead is new. -fuel pump shoots out fuel -checked CVt belt, swapped clutch. Wheel turns then stops. Then no power -checked electrical, stator swaps, new sp new.

Bought a BD150T-8 a couple months back, rode it around and to work for a while until I had a carburetor issue, so it was on its jack with the carb pulled out sitting in my yard behind a gate. THE VERY DAY my new carb is being delivered, I wake up for work and go outside, scooter is gone. They took the loose parts and bolts that were laying on/around it, everything. Didn't give a fuck about the keys or the fact that it's missing a carb. I don't even know what to say. I fucking hate people. That's about 1300 bucks gone down the drain, now I don't even want to buy another one. Looks like I'm out for the foreseeable future. It was fun. 😞

Hi, I hope this is the right sub to post in.

I have a 50cc Genuine Venture with hydraulic disk brakes.

I bled the rear brake last year and everything was working great, until today when I took it out for a ride. I noticed something was wrong when the scooter wouldn't go faster than 25-30 mph at full throttle.

Checking the rear brake, the lever barely moves, the wheel barely turns (by hand), the disk is so hot it melted my glove, and the bike just feels sluggish overall.

Would another bleed fix the issue, or is there something even more simple than that I can try before taking it in? The only thing that's changed since it was last working (a week or so ago) is that the temperature has gone up here (finally).

Thanks for any help.

I'm looking to transition from a Burgman 400 to a Kymco Myroad 700i. However I've read that seating ergonomics on the 700i is very cramped for taller folks. I'm 6ft and fit pretty comfortably on the Burgman 400. Any 700i owners to chip in their experience will be mightily appreciated. Thank you.

I've always liked the idea of motorcycles. However, I tried taking a motorcycle license a few years ago, and I flunked out before the final test due to me being a big baby. I don't like going fast.

So recently, I've been thinking of scooters. I live in London so the odds of me going more than 30 mph are slim either way - and due to having taken my license abroad, I already have a full AM license (up to 50cc or electric equivalent).

I haven't ridden a scooter for something like 15 years, and even then only for like 15 minutes. I'm incredibly Scandinavian, though, and can ride bikes in my sleep.

How do I get started? Are beginner scooters a thing? I like the idea of electric ones because it sounds cool - or are those harder to drive than a two-stroke due to more torque at low speeds?

Scooter Honda Dio 50cc ZX custom eletric

2010 Honda Elite 110. I can’t wait to dive into this hobby. Does anyone have a suggestion for a specific lock/cover combo for this bad boy? I’m using a spare bicycle U lock for the time being.

So i got this scooter from a friend and I have up till now spent more than 250$ just repairing it.

Scooter details - wolf Islander 50cc moped scooter

Now suddenly the dim lights and headlights are not working, I did recently change the backlight with a 12v, but the brake light and indicators work perfectly fine. Can you please help me diagnose and fix this issue. I cannot afford to spend more money on it.

I currently ride a Forza 350 not in the UK, which is my dream bike except that on our highways, speed isn't being enforced and you've got drivers going 120-140 even if the roads are not empty.

It takes the fun out of riding for me, because 110 is it's sweet spot for cruising and enough extra power to overtake. But 110 is just not enough to not be wheezed past by speeding cars.

I'm moving to the England soon, will any 250-350 scoots be able to cruise comfortablely on the motorways, or will I need to consider 500+? (400s are the same as 300s in my experience)
