Not sure what to do....
so i have an interesting problem with my 110. the other day i notice oil on the bottom of the engine...like it's been leaking while i drive. and i've noticed it "backfires" after i shut it off....only once though. i'll hit the kill switch and then *cough*. it runs fine though, off idle and WOT is fine. when i first got it, i messed with the idle screw cause it was dying at stop lights but the problem went away, is it possible it's running to rich still? thanks for the help guys.

Ran by the dealer and fixed me up in 15 minutes for free, completely dry now.

I just noticed that my exhaust port bolts were also loose.
I'm currently in the process of removing the wheels to change over to HF 903 tires, so I had to remove the exhaust and rear fender. I'll probably use a bit of lock-tite blue when I replace everything. I first need to find out if lock-tite withstands high temperatures.
I should have the scoot back together with the HF 903s and my new green Roughhouse panels (to be delivered any time now) before the weekend .

blue loctite is good to 300°F
red just says high tempurature.
if i was going to use loctite i would use the red. if you ever want to remove it run the scooter for a while and heat it up good, then try to remove the nut
personally i like lock washers better for somethign like that or even metal locking nuts
