Hi, from Washington's Olympic Peninsula!
Man, I'm excited. Haven't had a motorbike in 3 years... and this will be my first scooter!
The Forum looks great. I look forward to learning & contributing.
Chuck
Thanks, all!
Maintenance Updates
. Changed oil/filter, & gear oil
. Replaced drive belt
. Bled/cleaned front brake, lubed caliper pins, new fluid
. Adjusted valves (they were tight); love that 0.08mm!
. Tore into the carb (one jet was a smidge clogged; some white residue on the rubber diaphragm)
I can't believe how she purrs, now! Much smoother throttle response, especially at the low end.
Next: fuel filter (are there 2? i see a standard one on the left, and possibly a little white one on the right) and a cost-effective windshield.
Happy! Chuck
