like i said before i don't know much of anything when it comes to fixing these things or what is what.... all i know is, the bearing that's where the back tire is... is hanging out you can visibly see its broken... the back brakes need to be changed, the front brakes need to be changed, the bike makes some crazy noise then shuts off.. (noise coming from gear box area), then wont turn back on for some time till (clutch) cools down so I'm told... and i need a new back tire.... and i went to 3 different places to get quotes and all said around the $700 dollar area... so i have a moped that i pay insurance on that i cant even ride because the man that sold it to me swore up and down that all it needed was a back tire and some brake work....

well there are several things... today i was riding it and it started to make some crazy winding up sound coming from what i think was the gear box and then it just shut down... would act like it wanted to crank but just wouldnt... after an hour of sitting at an intersection in the heat... it finally started up again and rode like nothing happend? then i noticed that the back tired seemed odd so i checked it and i think the back baring is broken cause the tire wobbles.... its pretty scary... so i took it to a scooter place and they said i need a new clutch/starter clutch. a new baring, new front brakes, new back drum brakes, and some other part in the rear end that is going to cost around $600 for everything including the labor!

Just wondering if there is anyone near or around the Columbia SC area that would be willing to help me fix some stuff on my moped for cash of course... i really honestly have no idea what im doing but have found places for the parts i need... but its prolly a better bet to just take it to the shop but after getting a quote they are telling me i need around 500-600 dollars to fix everything... thanks again

honestly man i don't have any idea about moped motors or how to fix my moped or anything... that's why i joined this web site in hopes to get some more general knowledge and know how... but if you check this website out this is exactly the moped i have but it just says its made by road runner evosales.com/pd-250-touring-scooter.cfmbut i know the back breaks are worn out and the front pads are worn down as well... and it makes this crazy screeching noise sometimes im not sure if its because of the back brakes or the gear box? so im trying to figure out how to replace everything... and could anyone SUPPLY me with a good website to buy the PROPER parts for my moped as well please and thank you

Hello my name is Zack and i recently purchased a 250RR.
there are Plenty of things i would like to do but The man i bought it from did not provide a Manual..
i would like to know how to replace the back Drum brake pads as well as the Front pads.
also i would like to learn how to replace parts as well as change the oil and gear oil...
If anyone could help me with obtaining a Manual or Expertize on how to change or fix these parts and a Good website that sells Moped/scooter parts for the moped i have that would be awesome.... Thanks very much for your time
