The old Johnway left me stranded too far from home one time too many about 2 1/2 to 3 years ago and my wife said, "Here's money for a down payment, get a real scooter." The TMAX has been good for me and I'm ready to let the Johnway go after it sat for a few years in the corner of the basement.
My youngest 40 year old son wants it so I spent the last two weeks off and on getting it running again. New voltage regulator, new headlight bulbs, swapped the fouled carb for one I had laying around were added and adjusted. A couple of squirts of starter fluid to prime the carb, a couple cranks and it lives! IT LIVES AGAIN, BWAHAHAHAHA! Who knows for how long?
I am ambivalent about giving it to him because of its history of quitting and leaving me stranded. but I have warned him and he still wants it. Whatever, it will soon be gone.
Scooters are such fun . . .
