I thought it important to include this disclaimer right up front... I am not a mechanic, a gear-head or any other kind of expert on scooter repairs, etc. I just know how to ride my scooter.

But the good news is, there are lots of people more knowledgeable than me about those topics out here on the Web and they seem to be more than willing to share their expertise. So, if you need help, post your questions here and I'm sure one of these experts will get back to you...

And if you're one of those experts (you know who you are), then PLEASE... feel free to share your expertise with us other poor boneheads...

I thank you sincerely in advance...
