I just got back from a little ride down town, about 1 1/2 miles on my Scooter. My 1985 Honda CH150, I tired a couple weeks ago but the back tire was soft. At...
Mark Thanks for your response to DILEMMA RESOLVED. I didn't want you to get the wrong idea about me being "grounded". For a month, waiting for the parts, I...
Grand for you to get the chance. I started mine up in the cycle shed in a torrential downpour with 65 km winds roaring. Maybe I will wait and go around the...
Hi Bob I grow up in a cabinet shop. My father and one of my older brothers both had cabinet shops. My other brother and my sister are both contractors. So...
I did the worlds simplest fix and it worked just fine. I sprayed some Radio Shack contact cleaner into the switch and now it works better than before. Can you...

I suppose you're correct. I emptied my breather drain tube this week and 100ml of clear, chemicaly-smelling liquid poured right out. This is in the Pac. NW...
I learned a bit about this stuff a couple years ago. The early Aprilia Atlantics had a condition there they would get gas in the oil. This caused an over fill...
My scoot has a loud, shrill hum (a whir?) after it warms up. It doesn't happen until its been driven for about five minutes and it only occurs between...
I've scoured the messages for information on upgrading the front fork springs on the Elite and haven't found any viable information. The only shortcoming on my...

I didn't see a follow-up to the turn signal problem posted earlier. The audible pilot is connected across the turn signal relay output, so it could be a...
It turns out that all I needed to do was to spray some Radio Shack contact cleaner into the switch and the problem was solved. I believe that one should start...

Check the file on backfiring that Randy posted (Tech Tip #21). It could be something as simple and inexpensive as the exaust gasket or needing a valve...
Hey gang... I've been toying with the idea of selling off my scoots and moving to one maxi-scooter. I'm looking at the Aprilia Scarabeo 500. I trust you all to...
Wow, Jon, that's a lot of scoots. Off the top of my head, I'd say get rid of everything but the Elite, and do the shocks upgrade before your next ride - going...
Keep the Elite 250 & thin out the herd. As for the Aprilia Scarabeo 500, my only concern would be the Parts Network. Do you have a Aprilia Dealer near you?...

Jonathan, That's quite a stable of scooters you have there. If I were you I would look into getting the Yamaha Morpheus and keeping the Spree as a 'run to the...
Changing the oil every 500 miles? While there's nothing wrong with fresh oil, you've gotta be spending more on oil changes than necessary. The Honda manual...
