3 days later - update on the new scooter......

That tank that came with it is currently unusable - and may be trash. Lot's of holes.

Fortunately - I had a spare in VGC - except wrong colour. But of course in the interest of getting the bike rideable it came in very handy and I used it. Also installed a new Motobatt battery and decent used chain guard.

I will swap the tank out for a proper White one at some point, of course.

The seller had inadvertently attached the fuel pump lines backwards so I corrected that as well. In all fairness - she never ran the bike using the fuel pump because of the bad fuel tank. Just on a bottle. So I'm sure she would have caught this just like I did.

Idle is a bit high in the video but I adjusted it down a bit after filming. Will take for a test ride tomorrow. Overall the bike is in really good condition, so this was a good score!



That Yoshi is a little loud, as well....lol...
