Full synthetic may be too slivk in some cases when brand new . Many use Rotella at first . Its a safe bet to wait until 3rd oil change to go with a full synthetic . I use Castrol Synblend since it has both types mixed .
The roller weight kit has many diff weight amounts so you can try several and mix up like 3 5 gram and 3 6 grams to equal 5.5 grams . They kit they are soft and for short term use . Find an amount that works and go up 2 gram with slider weights

No need to be scared of synthetic as it is better . The thing is when brand new you want some friction with the rings so the seat where with full synthetic it may be to slick when brand new put very safe to use from the 3rd oil change . Should change it at 200 miles or so and again at 300 then every 1,000 or when the oil starts to get a blackened color instead of being golden . Synthetic oil also may reduce engine heat in the summer too

A trickle charger around 1/2 amp will help in the winter as there is quick connect adapters for them .
Some stores do not mind parking on the sidewalk as long as its not in the way of the door or sales display . I do that or cable up to a shopping cart return bin

Correction all 3 of my Tomos pedal mopeds had a two speed tranny like a Chevy Powerglide .
Hank I wanted a SR50 so bad but only had 1,400 and I got lucky my dealer knocked off 200 bucks since I am a repeat customer and refereed several of my buddies to them .
Interested in trying the larger size sliders like Carasdad mentioned in a thread

A buddy has an alarm with remote start and a dog can make it go off by being too close and yes it does draw from the battery . A mean dog can help at home . Paint it hot pink and no " gangsta " would want to steal and ride it LOL

I use disc locks and heavy cables for traveling with logging chain at home . CycleGear has many locks as does Walmart in the bicycle section . I also use Masterlock Ubolt locks that go through the wheels which are forged steel . I used them when I rode mountain bikes . I broke some bolt cutters testing to see how strong it is and it took forever with a hacksaw to cut it . I use so many locks that even MacGyver would have trouble . Yes it is a lil bit of a hassle but gives me peace of mind as so many scooters are stolen . Most of these thieves are dopers that want an easy steal . Power tools would make alot of noise but not as much as my Tarus Judge with 45 and 410 shells mixed

Use dino oil for the first two times then use any brand name synthetic . I used to use Shell Rotella 15w40 and switched to Castrol Synblend 10w40 Here is a CVT tuning kit to try various weights enviromoto.ecrater.com/p/14177743/prima-roller-weight-kit-16-x-13 I love how Dr Pulley sliders work better than rollers myself and since they are hard the last longer too |

Here www.scrappydogscooters.com/139QMB_50cc_Performance.html they have stock parts as well . just read up all you can BEFORE buying anything plan on making a mistake as it is easy to do even for use long time wrenchers . So your planing on a BBK and have not even got the scooter yet ? If you want a speedy 50 then hurry and get one of the last 2T or 2 strokes left |

First off a 139qmb is 49cc and GY6 refers to a 150cc but some also use the term GY6 50 .
How many miles are on it ? Have you checked or adjusted the valves ?

I bought a Punisher skull decal to go on the front of my Magnum off Amazon . Its storming here but I will post once it clears up . I have seen some wrapped up in duct tape like a mummy . I saw one with loads of duct tape where he wrote with a Sharpie " Harley FatBoy " on it LOL . I do toy with the idea to use a Decipticon decal from " Transformers " My scooter dealer has on these with the carbon fiber look panels as I doubt its real CF since it costs so much but does like great www.gorillamotorworks.com/products/gmw-m2/ |
