Scooter Tips
-
Always use a good quality scooter oil
-
If its a cold day always let your scooter warm up about 5 minutes before you are about to ride it
-
If your scooter keeps getting rust on the fork legs this is due to salt on the roads and riding in the rain. To stop this get an old rag wipe down the legs so they are clean and then spray WD40 on the legs but do not get any on the disc
Ridging in wet conditions
-
If its a rainy day which it usually is in the Uk, try not to use your brakes on the white road markings as they will be very slippery and you may end up coming off
-
When riding in wet conditions keep your speed low, moving at high speed will reduce your stopping and griping on road. Turn bends, corners, etc. at really slow speed because as you turn and accelerate you will feel the back tyre slightly slip so go round corners really slow to prevent an accident.
-
Does your helmet visor keep on steaming up when its a cold day? If it does clean it with washing up liquid or you could buy a anti mist visor sticker that prevents it steaming up for £9.99

When you arrive at your destination, always turn the ignition off before you dismount.
(My first ride home, I didn't switch off before dismounting, my heavy Honda Lead twist'n'go went astray and drew a black line along the side of my barber's car, next thing I know he does these strange patterns on my head when I get my "number one all over".
