walt,
around here a lot of afro americans---dont know another PC word to use,,, have them. i know of at least 20, in this small town.
theres no way they could be 80cc tho. they dont go fast enough.
But good for people w/o a license to get around with, rather than walking.
hope it works out 4 ya

 HI & WELCOME
^^^^ do what they say^^^^^
plus if you want it to last a long time
DONT BEAT IT
no WOT all the time,
change oil alot--oils the life blood of it
and only cost < $10 / OT
'member 150's are a 50 maybe 55 mph scoot ONLY.
the drive belt--order one and save it till yours breaks
no reason to fix it if it aint broke
the carb---well i really dont think you need to replace it
just adjust it.
running a lil sea-foam or sta-bil in every other fill up
will keep it clean
again welcome & good luck

@ yello
yea except around here
people post OUTRAGEOUS prices,
even for not running ones.
but i guess if they are asking for $1000
and you show up with 5 100's , they might go for it

You do valve adjustments every 4 months??? I haven't done my first one yet, and I'm at 3000+km's (~2k miles). I think doing them every 2k miles would be good...
i check 'em every 4 months
beginning of spring & again towards the end of summer.
sometimes they are fine, sometimes they are a bit off.
and well last summer i put 2,000k miles on in 4 months
and im at over 8,000 miles in 3 1/2 years
so if you can add , yea thats about 2k every 4-5 months
and heck if a person wants to check every 1000, who cares?

WALT
i think you better start building a engine
that can withstand -30 to -60 degree weather,
maybe a head warmer on it,
and mount it on a trike or 2 ski snowmobile
thingy dingy.
that engine is HOT
but i dont think it withstand your move

in the 1st year , i did 'em every 1000 miles
since then , ehhh every 2-3-4 months.
but i change oil more than that,
by a long shot.....
i might change oil 2, sometimes, in the summer,
with alot of heavy riding, i might change oil 3 times/ month.
even full synth. its what $9-10/ Qt.  ?
oils the life blood, $20-$30 a month
is a good trade off for me.

or drive it off a deep cliff

this is what it looks like out my front door 
but it must be nice to be able to just park
your scoot on the street like that.
around here---it would be gone the 1st night |
