Great info...I installed HID's on my scoot almost 5 yrs ago and love them. LED's might be my next upgrade. Thanks...

Hi...I have over 11,000 miles on my scooter and no problems other than 1 R/R, 1 blocking diode, and of course tires. Just normal maintenance. Purchased new in August 2008. Enjoy the ride....

I would love to have a Cushman Eagle or even a clone. Maybe they will come through. I am 66 yrs old and I remember them. I even had a Simplex...and love the Mustang. Great times....

The rear wheel needs blue loctite when you install the nut. Then check it every time you think about it, check by moving the wheel side to side. Once you tighten the nut do not turn it again, as it will break the loctite and cause the nut to loosen. Enjoy...

Hi...I do admit that the headlights are marginal...I installed HID's about 4 yrs ago and have not looked back. I used 35w 5000k...H4...9003....Hi/Lo with relays from ebay. I also installed LED's which helped the charging system work. I have over 11000 miles on my 2008 Roketa MC54B...257 cc scoot. The info is on the scoot forums on how to install the HID's..enjoy your ride...

I just placed the remote in the house and left the alarm alone. That was 5 1/2 yrs ago and have not had a problem. Just my 2 cents.
