Pedro Posted Monday at 16:29 Share Posted Monday at 16:29 Took the GS for a ride as today was sunny and my plans for work didn't materialize. So, left for a coffee and came back 4 hours later, didn't stop except for fuel and took no pictures, just felt like giving the bike a warm up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clive Posted yesterday at 12:27 Share Posted yesterday at 12:27 What a difference a couple of weeks make!, scoot has been up for sale since last Friday, this time?, not 1 single enquiry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted yesterday at 17:13 Share Posted yesterday at 17:13 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! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring it on! Add some Dr. Pulley variator sliders for better acceleration, or go the whole hog and install a J Costa variator. Twist and go gear changing is so last century! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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?

J Costa variator gives good results, but it works differently to a standard variator and needs a little more frequent maintance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s okay, the scooter came with a big tub of Vaseline. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that will be fine given that there is no combustible material like wood anywhere near it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you know what you're doing, but wouldn't it better to heat from the bottom than from the top of the room? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
