Well it may have been a carb issue to start with. Ran lean like crazy and POW.

Well if he is taking the rims and tired off anyway to save money then the rest is simple.

If you ever changed a bicycle tire when you were a kid then you can do a scooter tire. Nothing to it really. The tire will slide on the rim just the same.

Glad to see that you were able to get it fixed. I would go over it with a fine tooth comb looking for cracks though. Putting pressure on the frame may weaken it at some other point and at will be the welds. Just thinking safety.

Pull the scooter up to a wall. Get a buddy to give it a little gas, not full throttle. You watch the areas that they highlighted in the pics and see if the if anything moves. Watch the cracks and also look at the back if the tire to see if it pushes into the cowl where the hole has been rubbed in it. If it flexes at all it's unsafe. It appears from the pics like the forks were pushed back at one point pretty hard and caused front end damage. If you have any movement at all I would also check the neck to make sure it doesn't have any damage. If the neck is good you can just replace the other parts and you'll be fine.

Adjust on the throttle side. You will be able to get that 1/4 turn slack out and maybe give yourself more throttle which means more speed.

Oh that doesn't look good at all. I wouldn't be riding it at all until that has been checked and double checked.

You use the to take out any play that you may have in your throttle.
