Sounds like with your success so far you won't really need a ride anywhere soon. How many miles on the BBK now?

[replyingto=scootnwinn]scootnwinn[/replyingto]I hope so, now that I can reach 50mph and cruise at 40-45 there's a lot more possibilities for me, I'll be able to go to all the near towns and scooter shops and even the DMV in woodstock. I got 220 miles or so ;D Another 80 and I'll be doing that second oil change, then another at 300 more miles. In my last oil change there were no metal particles, I checked the oil with a magnet and everything  |

[replyingto=salracer]sailracer[/replyingto]Absolutely. I'm so grateful that they returned all my monies.  I thought they were going to act like the typical thieving corp, but the guy who works there (who also admittedly admires my scooter ;D) was really nice about it. He says that's what warranties are for. The guy who rented me the gear puller was behind the guy ringing me out and he couldn't believe I broke the gear puller. He saw the little shaft and the gear when I brought it in there to size up the gear pullers and he thought for sure the gear puller he gave me would do the job: Nope! I let him know that it can take up to 10 tons of pressure to press on and off the gear and his eyes went wide. Both of them asked why and all I could say was "leave it to the Chinese", ironically the older gentlemen ringing me out said "I guess they're trying to compete with Honda or something".  |

[replyingto=millsc]millsc[/replyingto]Totally, Chris! I absolutely abhorred the process, but after finally getting them in I'm quite satisfied. I couldn't believe when I read "51mph" on my GPS app. Good luck with your Hoca gears! It must be awesome having two scooters so in case you misconfigure your setup on one you'll have the other one for backup |

Wow man that is some hoops you had to go through.
I was surprised a little 3 arm 2 ton gear puller got my gears pressed off and on, with the help of my impact wrench to go faster.
And it was like 32 dollars to rent.
But at least you got them in and you have good results!
