Argh-headed to work this morning-scooter almost didn't start. At first it just clicked, then I got it to sputter, and finally, it started. I'm now at work, paranoid that at the end of the day, I won't be able to start it. I've only got 150 miles on it-what could be going on?
Also-in the event that it doesn't start, can someone give me the idiot's guide to kickstarting?
Many thanks!

Scooter on center stand, key on, push the kick start down slowly once, then kick it down hard, should start. IF it doesn't, keep kicking it, and add a wee bit of throttle. Also, check to make sure your battery connections are tight. I always kick start mine, the thing will not start with the electric start ( an electrical issue that I'm not interested in remedying), so I just gave up and use the kick start.
