    anyone here with a vespa that can help me ?

    I need to fit a speedo cable to my 125 gtv and i have no way of knowing the correct routing under the front mudguard. If i look up i see a gap between the mudguard and fork where they meet in the centre, this seems an obvious route but would run the cable up against the shock spring and possibly...

    Rear Drive Oil Change Interval

    The gearbox uses the engine oil, they class the swigarm as gearbox so this is what you are loking at.

    The C-series scoots should have been 800s!!!

    I do like the 800 motor and the belt drive system has been very reliable but to produce this for the scooter they would have had to re design the cases to take the cvt and gearbox etc. I think our current motors and the firing ordwr of the crank works wel enough for what we have and i am sure...

    Rear Drive Oil Change Interval

    To replace the chain and sprockets you would have to drain the oil anyway, so with that i would say every 12000 miles.

    12000 mile service

    our dealership have just quoted around the £600 mark for the 12,000 service. this in my eyes would be different if the chain and sprockets did'nt need replacing, after all the tension is adjustable as long as it's checked and can be adjusted. i think the huge price revolves around this item...

    baxter broke

    baxter is now fixed and back on the road, new rear subframe, rear light, number plate holder and number plate light. it was'nt a bad fix and only took a couple of hours. i took some interesting pics, the scoot lost it's rear for a short time and looks kinda freaky.

    6000 Mile Service

    I would say they carried out a software update, it makes perfect sense. My 600 had the update at pdi so i never saw the change, i also show 53 mpg as an average but thats uk gallons, you guys must have the software for US gallons.

    ??? reset tpms

    take it back to the dealer and get them to re synch the tpm's to the bike, when they do this they will be able to know if the sensor is reacting or not. the sensors are very easily damaged when changing tyres, especially if the tyre fitter isn't aware of them or know where they are. if the...

    metallic sound in extreme driving situations BMW C650 GT 2014

    you say a detonation sound, with this do you get a vibe through the bars and a feeling the motor is holding back? as said by others, quite hard to diagnose without someone else riding it. if it's a metalic clattering noise, check all screws are in and tight on the manifold shield of the...

    Cleaners

    i have used castrol greentech in the past which is a spray on cleaner, works well but i found i needed to work it around as it seems quite consentrated to me. other than that, i have now started to use a car shampoo with carnuba wax in it and still work it in and around then rinse. i always dry...

    Timing chain tensioner recall done

    off the top of my head yours shouldnt need the recall but get it checked out anyway as it might have been sat around a while before being registered.
