    chain adjustor #3

    Today I finally had a chance to replace the chain adjuster in the rear drive (it was warmer out) When I changed the adjuster the first time there was still a fair amount of slack. This time going from #2 to #3 I found less slack. This is what I expected as the chain is not stretching as fast...

    Distance after fuel light

    So I finally got around to checking how far you can go after fuel light comes on. This has been a discussion since this forum began 4 years ago but no one has answered. I got my fuel canister that had about half a litre in it and tossed under the seat. Off I went, I was already close to empty as...

    winter storage

    Most of us have stored a car or a motorcycle/scooter for the winter. One thing I do with my Z3 during the winter is I leave the doors and trunk ajar so the rubber does not get frozen in the crushed position and leak in the spring rain. When I store the scooter a also leave the seat ajar also to...

    The Belt

    I worked on my scooter today and replaced the belt and installed my Dr. Pulley rolls and sliders. As for the belt when I compared the old to the new, the wear was about .050 of an inch or about 1.25mm off the sides that are used (half on each side). The scooter has 25,000km or about 15,000...

    Oil filter

    So I was doing some searching for oil filters than could be used on our scooters. I found a few but were all to long for the 650gt scooter because of the belly pan in the way and the small possibility of bottoming out on the filter. That filter being a frame mph3614 as it is 1 1/4 inch longer...

    Belt life

    I know the service manual calls for the belt to be changed at 20,000km or 12,000miles but the question is how far are you pushing it till you replace it and are there signs that it needs replacing.
