Yes it makes the noise when it’s not running but it’s not constant. I put a bit of tape on the wheel at the point the noise happens and it takes exactly one revolution to make the noise again.
The consensus on the forum is that it’s the brake calliper so I’ll get it down to my mates place tomorrow and we’ll investigate.
Yes mate it’s belt drive and apart from the first few feet as you pull away it’s absolutely fine. It accelerates properly and the rear brake pulls you up very well.
So here’s one for you @Clive, got a rather unpleasant grinding noise when I pull away or push it around the garage. Everyone on the forum says it’s the brake caliper but what do you say?
I like the idea of that
Just had a look on Amazon.es and you can buy a set for about 55 euros but there are so many different one/sizes so how will I know which one to go for?
Now then………not a bad idea. A mate if mine in the UK told me to be careful I didn’t catch my skirt in the back wheel so you may be onto something there @Buckster
Collected the scooter and took it for a spin. Stopped by my mates place en route for a brew…………it’s addictive this twist and go lark
Already been scouring the usual places for unnecessary bling and I can confirm it’s mostly chavtastic.
Bring it on!
