Well I think I am in deep trouble. I am not very good with the wrenchs and it took me 2 1/2 hours to get that lower left hand panel off. I will set aside 3 weeks to put it back on but I cannot even see the carb. up in that mess. Tomorrow I will take the seat and liner off and see if I can see the carb. that way. We finaly have nice riding weather in AR. and I have a pile of parts in my car port. Bad timing on my part.

Hi Rich...I went out to look at the bottom panel on the muffler side. Do you mean the panel that runs under the foot rest?

Well I stood on the center stand(I am 6'2" 190lbs)and did as you all mentioned. Left hand on grip...right hand on trunk holder...Jumped and pulled at the same time and pain like I have never remembered went through my right shoulder. I think I tore my rotater cup. I think the running her up on a board will have to do. I see the Doc on monday about the shoulder. It is what it is.

I have a 2008 Roketa 250 and I am in good health for 87 years old and a retired Marine but I just cannot get my scoot up on the center stand. To change oil or what ever I have to get some one to help me. Is there some dark secret to this and don't ask me to lift it up 'cause it is 300 lbs. and a little out of my range.
