Roadrunner is bad. I filed a complaint about them to Superior. They told me they were going to stop using them  . OPen the crate up completely while they are there and inspect it completely. WHen mine showed up, RDFS had stuck a forklift through the side of the scooter. Still waiting (from Superior) my new front facia, and both sideskirts. They did it on both sides. Huge holes. I just talked to Jeff at Superior again today. Got a lil snippy this time. Claim was approved, 2 months ago almost. Just make sure to check while the truck is there. If there is damage during delivery, and you dont see it and report it to the deliverer while they are there, then it will not be covered. To properly file a claim with Superior, the delivery people must also submit their pics, and delivery receipt showing it was damaged. Hopefully yours will be fine. I am unlucky with things sometimes. If i dont get my new parts soon, i will just order them myself. I can get what needs repairs for $150. Just shouldnt have too. Will not go through Superior again. Super nice on the phone while they lie to you though. Gotta give them credit for that.   |

Just do what i did. Cancel the order for 54B and get the MC-79-250 from them. Loving mine. I had the same issue with my order of the 54B back in April. They told me it would be available many times. Still not available to this date. Hope you get what you want though. Good luck.

Got it. I pushed the valve and released the tiny bit of air that was in them. I then pumped them up to about 12 psi. Seems all better. I also determined that every single rattle and clank i have on the scoot is from the center stand. So problem solved. Center stand removed. Only 1 bolt to put back on when service time.

I know. I have been tinkering with the new scoot all week. Getting the gremlins out. I keep thinking of things to do myself, and then sit anxiously until lunch break, or after work. Gonna attempt to put air in rear shocks at lunch. Since i am bottoming out. It looks like there was none in them. Good luck with the rebuild. Hope it all goes smooth.

Noone knows this?  I figured someone else had rear air shocks and knew about it. I am going to just put a lil air in there and keep testing it then. My last scoot had sealed gas shocks. So wasnt a issue. IF i cant figure it out. I guess i can order some stock 54B shocks for it. They are sealed. |

Need some help friends. I got my new Roketa MC-79-250. It seems to be bottoming out on me when riding. I noticed it has the rear air shocks with the reservoirs. Under the reservoir, it had a rubber plug i pulled off. It looks like it has a tire like air valve. Do i just need to add air to the shocks through this valve? Its definately not right when riding. It clunks on bumps, and seems bouncy. I am hoping i just need to add some air. If so, and idea what kind of pressure it should be. THANKS for any help. Keep Scootin
Paul

OK, so figured out the problem with the fan running all the time. The place i bought it from had the 2 wires twisted together instead of going through the sensor like it should. SO the fan ran all the time. I got it hooked up to the sensor now like it should, and problem seems solved. I let it run for a bit while i adjusted the idle. Fan kicked on when temp guage got a lil above half way. So that is fixed. Next thing is the crappy stock fuse. It wasnt getting a good connection and scotter wouldnt start. Had to pinch it tighter until tomorrow when i can change it.
