Yeah, I agree. In the city I used to live in,New Bedford Mass, a lot of "youngsters" get scooters and wreak havoc throughout the city.Cutting cars and busses off, not adhering to common traffic laws etc. Consequently, the local police crack down on all scooter riders.A few idiots ruin the reputation for all.I still ride out to there occasionally, but I'm careful not to push it.

Yup, and besides that, with the stock airbox, everything "appears" factory,So you don't get Un neccesary attention from the powers that be, and wind up in hot water for running a modified machine without the proper documents ;D In most New england states, if it goes over 25 or 30, you need to register it as a limited use motorcycle.

Stock Airbox with 5 extra 3/8 holes drilled in the back half, on the bottom of the airbox cover, Keeps water out, gets enough air, had no problems.. EXactly what I was thinking! besides that,The airbox on these scooters are "tuned" not only for airflow, but for sound, I think letting a little more air into it at a time is a better method of measuring your desired performance than the aftermarket filter which lets all the air in at once.so, when upjetting, you have no middle ground.At least with the airbox, you can let in a little more air at a time, and even restrict some by blocking extra holes.If one is resourceful enough,an adjustable damper could even be made.sort of like the butterfly valve in the carb.or a damper from a grill. ;D |

Looks like the whole thing was staged! Notice the guy filming? also everyone seems very calm. I think he dumped it on purpose.Must have a sponsor, or a lot of money

Ive been using the same one now for8 seasons, wash it down every time. sometimes i run it, sometimes i leave it in the sun to dry. water has never given me an issue. Of course you need to use common sense and not spray directly into the motor ;DI also have a John deere rider thats well over 20 yrs old. I wash that one too. Have only replaced carb, plugs, belts and filters. blade too, looks and runs excellent. I've used enough water on that one to fill a tanker truck ;D

I would check that lever, mine acted up this year.As far as keeping it clean, Just hose off the underside and wheels after each use, Keeping it clean prolongs it's useful life. water will not hurt it. hose away  |

does this mower by chance have a lever across the handle like a blade brake? when you let go, it stops?

Has anybody ever seen a small tow-behind cart for scooters/bikes any pictures of them? I think it's a great idea for hauling small stuff, groceries etc.Just around town stuff. ;D
