First Service
Posted: Fri Apr 30, 2010 6:16 pm
At 864 miles, I had my first service on the 150 St. Tropez. I went a little over, but the guys at Scooter Invasion were okay with it. They changed every fluid, adjusted the read brakes, adjusted the headlight and did a visual of everything.
On the 16 mile ride home, the brakes were the very first thing I noticed. I was used to their squishiness. When I hit the brake at a light, I almost locked up the back wheel. They really tightened it. But, I was used to it pretty quickly.
The other thing I noticed (or maybe imagined) was that it sounded a little different. My only description of the sound is that it seemed tighter.
I'm glad the first service monkey is off my back.
