Wondering why you guys moved up north and west, there is not much scooter traffic up there. I would think you would move were scooter and motorcycle riders were prevalent. There is only one dealer around that sells Chinese scooters and services them outside of Chicago that I know of and that is TOOLSTORE on Harlem and route 66. But their service is very poor they have high school kids putting the scoots together and their mechanic needs some learning to do. Alleyoop www.toolstorechicago.com/

There is a used car dealer about a mile from me that sells scooters never stopped in but in the summer they have the scoots out in front. There was a import service shop about 1/2 mile from me that sold Vespas and Piaggos and worked on scoots as well any make of scoots. He had a good thing going used to have a good scooter mechanic just for the scoots he did not work on cars. Had a couple of lifts and his own computer to order parts etc..Actually when I ordered the 2 ICE BEAR trikes I had them delivered to his shop to put together and do the PDI. My brother in law and I drove them home from there. Around here in the different towns people use scoots to drive to the train station in their towns, they park them there and get on the train to get to work usually downtown chicago. The guy used to always have his part of the shop with scoots waiting to get fixed and another area for already fixed scoots waiting to get picked up.
So yes if you can find a car dealer or car service like that would be a good thing. Alleyoop
But he made his money and sold it to someone and the new owners do not do scoots.

We almost moved in with a used car dealer that has an awesome location, but it kind of fell through, at least for now.
Where are you at alleyoop?
