Hey 90GTVert! Just want to say "Thank You!" for taking the time to put this series together. I'm a 52 year old Gramma who needed to get mobile on a budget and opted to buy a TaoTao Scooter. With no mechanical knowledge myself, Your expertise has really helped me out as my scooter arrived with absolutely NO assembly instructions. While I was tempted to just assemble to save time, I took your advice and removed the body panels to inspect. Good thing, many issues that needed attention....like the fuel hose that was not connected....despite all the stickers that claimed it was "inspected" and "tested", LOL. ADVICE TO NEW SCOOTER PURCHASERS.....WALK THRU EVERY VIDEO IN THIS SERIES!'
Thanks again 90GTVert!!! Kathy
Congrats on the new ride! Thanks for watching and I'm happy to hear the vids were helpful!
Dang, I am thoroughly impressed with your detail and clear communication.I just bought 2 Chinese scooters, your assembly videos are the best I've found.
Just starting this series, i originally watched your video on oil change and decided to watch it all. I'm getting one of these (which I am scared about it breaking in transit but am also excited) and am so happy you have these videos to help put me in a mindset on how to make sure it will run terrifically, THANK YOU!
This guy did a fantastic job on this series of videos. I am going to purchase this exact model soon and found this information informative and helpful. The Chinese have been manufacturing scooters for a very long time, over 50% of the scooters in the world are made in China. Since they are starting to become more available in the USA, this poses a threat to more expensive manufacturers . As a result , there is a lot of negative information being distributed, designed to deter consumers from buying Chinese scooters.
Scooters are utilized more in Asian countries than anywhere else and the Chinese make some pretty good models for the price. Take a look at the videos of scooter traffic in Taiwan to get an idea of how many people use these for their main transportation every day.
the 2015 atm50a1's are great scooters! Your videos helped me assembling it! I have 2,000 real miles on it with no problem. Never used the factory oil, I used 10w40 in it! I put 75w90 gear oil in the gearbox. Thanks for the videos!!! :)
Thanks for watching. Good luck with your TaoTao!
Love watching your videos. Straight talk and to the point. without any hemming and hawing. You seem to really know your stuff when it comes to scooters. I´m ordering one and I wish you were my neighbor! lol
+Alexandria Summers Thanks very much. Good luck with your new scooter.
I just want to agree with all the many positive comments you make the best videos and I learn a lot
Thanks
Thank you!
I just watched all your videos as I need to help teenage kid fix his moped and they were great help and answered all my questions thank you so much for making them I now feel confident enough to help him with his instead of paying a shop to do it thanks again
The ATM 50 is the best buy for the price my friend has one its very reliable and surprisely quick too off the line
Probably the most thorough and professional how-to video series ever! Great job. Wish you were my personal mechanic...of course, with these videos, you kind of are! Thanks.
Thank you very much!
I just bought me a tao tao 40cc on friday its a good scooter rides really good
Hey Robert! Bout time you started making some vids. You were the ONLY guy back in 2011 who'd ever heard of a tao tao when I had mine LOL! keep up the great work. Now everyone has one.You were SO helpful in helping me replace my carburetor. I still have mine. Had an accident & had to have my knee replaced & Its still going. & after 1yr, I'm back on it. Need some cosmetics otherwise its awesome! Can you lead me towards a place in country that has the tupperware? I have a CY-B
10W40 to 15W40. You don't need a motorcycle oil, because these scoots don't have wet clutches. Wait till maybe 500 miles if you want to use synthetic. I have an oil change vid up as well, as one of the parts of my PDI series.
...and lamb of god shirt?! icing on the cake. Sir, I'm going to subscribe and like your videos on every computer I ever touch for all that you've done for us.
+confusedenormaton \m/
OK must have been bad gas. White smoke and everytime I tried to get it over idle it shut off acting like not getting fuel. Drained and filled with fresh 93 and it cured it almost immediately
do you no the size of the box wondering if it will fit in the back of my trailblazer
I don't recall and I don't have the box or frame anymore. I would think the seller should be able to tell you the dimensions.
Thanks
I have a 2012 taotao was running fine but when I did a valve adjust the exhaust keeper nut came off and the scooter bogged out. Fixed didn't see any harm done and got scooter to restart off a jump box. I can no longer get it to start and I have fuel leaking from air box about 5 minutes after trying to to start. Do you think I'm flooding the crab is why it won't start? It tries after awhile on jump box bit never fires off. Think petcock is stuck open little cuz when i pull fuel lunge from crab I have a small stream and scooter is off
Hey. Glad you're back to scooting. Check out ScrappyDogScooters, PartsForChineseScooters, and EagleATVParts.
90GTVert i just
t bought a scooter its a tao 2015 i put in a new battery , it kick starts ,the light sill work, but the horn and gauges dont work at all and obviously the electric start doesnt work. Ive watch about all of your vids on tal . does this problem sound familiar to you, or anybody else? out of all the other videos you by far make it clear and simple on instructions honestly. I registered to you website but at the moment the sight is having a problem send the verification code.
The most likely simple cause would be a blown fuse. Look near the batter for a fuse holder.
Great video I just have a couple questions. I'm 16 and want to drive a moped just around town and school. I live in Connecticut and am a bit confused about my state laws regulating the cc of each moped/scooter. So if i was to purchase this "moped" would it be legal for me to drive it, and is it 49cc or is it 50cc. Because I have been informed that it has to be 49cc but when I research this bike brand it comes up at 50cc. Please help me clear this up.
I've watched a lot of your videos and subscribed because I feel that they're extremely helpful. Especially for someone like me who is not really mechanically inclined. But I've been doing a lot of research about scooters and I've decided a 150cc would better suit my needs. I'm wondering if the PDI would be the same I mean everything is pretty much in the same spot since I'm still getting a taotao right? Or are there any major differences I should be aware of?
Mz Cains For the the most part the PDI will be the same, but removing panels will be different unless you've found a 150 that looks like the ATM50. The GY6 150 is very similar to the 139QMB/GY6 50 so oil change and valve adjustment will be the same process. If you decide to do the part of the PDI checking under the CVT cover, then on the 150cc you need to remove the kick start lever before the cover comes off instead of the whole assembly coming off like the 50. There will be some differences here and there but I think the PDI series will help most of the way. You can always join the forum 49ccscoot.proboards.com and there's someone around willing to help most of the time too.
move down south boys! In Georgia you only need proof of orgin/title & bill of sale incase you "decide" to insure it.....50cc are not req. to be registered or insured here as of yet, no DMV sticker/inspection needed! Only thing needed here for 50cc is a drivers license & helmet n yer good ;)
please do a piston replacement video for 4 stroke scooter
Do you think the electrical components on the 50cc taotao could stand running 6-7 12" led light strips with out doing any harm. I want to add a couple of red lights for better visibility and braking.
Try not to stack up more than 10-15 watts and you should be OK. Check the ratings of the strips you're looking at and add them up. You can probably get away with a little more for brake activated lights since they are not operating full time. Keep an eye on your battery charging until you know for sure that your lighting setup is not drawing too much.
Thank you very much. Your vids are awesome keep up the great work
Thank you. Good luck with the lights.
Is this legal in the UK? Do you need a licence? Can it be driven on the roads or is it off-road? How old do you have to be to ride it? 16?
I have the same one runs good
Is Tao Tao 2014 model a good buy do you think I want something cheap but I don't want it to be junk ether ?
+Jake sonnentag Depends if you're willing to work on it. With Chinese scooters, you have to expect issues to some degree. Another alternative is a used Yamaha, Honda, Kymco, Vespa, or Piaggio if you can find one at a price you're comfortable with.
Hi how are you doing? Thank for great video! I have questions about my moped is running but when I speed it is go but slow down,if you can help me appreciate you time 😴
Perhaps the carburetor needs to be tuned. If it's full throttle and it starts to slow or bog, then work with the main jet first... assuming the carb is clean.

90GTVert thank you for your time
I just bought one like that but i don't know what oil I need, Can you tell me?
Do you think Lucas fuel treatment would richen the fuel?
Don't think it would do much, but can't say I've ever tried it in a scooter.
I subbed once I saw the LoG shirt lol
🤘
CY50-B The one that looks like a cheap Vespa LOL! I've looked online and can't seem to find anything that won't be put on a slow boat from china, & having to pay through the nose for shipping, & customs etc...
Thanx, TheRidge
Just bought one....but was told don't need helmet or liscense. Am in Nevada. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks
Here are a few links that may help you : 49ccscoot.proboards.com/thread/8172/nevada-scooter-laws-info
If you get a helmet, get a good one. You don't have to spend big money, but buy a known brand (not the cheapest Chinese helmet you can find) and make sure it fits you properly. They can save your life. Trust me. I've had 2 accidents where I ruined full face helmets. Got knocked out on the last one in maybe a 40MPH crash (deer). If that's with a helmet on, I can only imagine without. Many people think of helmets as little more than an inconvenience, but if you ever need it you will be glad to have it. Don't think you won't crash. I got hit by a deer once. The other one was someone losing a hay bale as they passed that landed in front of my tire. Sometimes there's nothing you can do about it.
comes with free fish tabk stand wooo.
im getting my second atm50 coming monday... how important would u say it is to do the check or could i just replace fluids?
Replace fluids is a must IMO. Don't trust that stuff. Some get lucky and don't have problems for a while, some don't. IMO spending time on it now saves time and frustration later, but it's your call. Beyond the fluids, at very least look it over and check that everything is working, tire pressure is good, tires and valve stems are in good condition, no play in the steering, and brakes are working well.
I have a question do you need an M1 or M2 license to drive a 49cc-50cc moped/scooter ? in California ?? any help with do?
I'm on the opposite side of the US, but AFAIK M1.
Hey I'm looking to buy one of these scooters and I am wondering where the best place would be to order one?
+Jake sonnentag I can't tell you the best place, but I had a good experience where I bought mine. Here's a review : 49ccscoot.proboards.com/thread/5617/familygokarts-com-scooter-buying-experience
How to replace back light bulbs in 49 cc taotao
There is a small panel under the tail light. Remove that (shown in link) and then a couple of screws will let you remove the tail/brake cover. The others can be accessed from the rear of the assembly.

Cool Video !
what is a good replacement battery for 49cc scooter 12v 9ah or 12v 7ah
Check out the lithium ion batts. Can be a little pricey, but really good cranking amps and super light.
2014 tao 49 cc after 3 months it rides 2 or 3 blocks then dies. it takes a few minoutes and starts back up and does same thing . i checked ear leakes cleand carb good spark .what gives ? please hellp and greate vids thank you
+myron edge Maybe the float height is off or the vacuum petcock is failing. www.49ccscoot.com/faq/carbtune.html#floatheight
i have gone from gas tank to carb cleaned everything and by passed petcock it idles good but at wot just dies i will check floats again, they were level and working last looked at. maybe valves? its my last thing to check.and thank you this is driving me nuts lol
It sounds like it's running out of fuel perhaps to me, so that's why I suggested those things. Could be lean from a cracked intake or loose connection.
this is what i thought to.i followed all your vids i could not find no air leakes.cleaned air fillter, the lines on floates line up . new gas lines .i got the red rtv gasket maker so now i will remove the carb from the cilinder and really inspect it for leakes. the only other thing i am wondering. i did remove a screew with a spring and ballbering from the bottom half of float bowl that may be a little off i took it out when cleaning the carb but i am shure i put it back right like i said i am at a lost now.
its been raining so cant do annything the problem started before i cleend the carb so doubt it is the screew with the bering.you dont think valve ?if i have it up on kick stand i can get wot but after a few revs she dies .lol told you its driving me crazzy. i have been all over 49 cc scoot and dont se annything .i hope its nice out tomorowe
It is a long case or short case engine ?
Short.
What size bolts are those what do i need to take the crate off when i order mine?
Any metric socket or wrench set, wire cutters, and maybe a box cutter/utility knife would get it out of the crate.
90GTVert do know the sizes i need for thing ?
@@kevinthorn9672 Not really. Most are common, which is why I said they should be included in any decent socket or wrench set. You'd only really need to know sizes of fasteners if you're replacing them.
Hey man i just got my boom scooter today gas tank is empty what gas does it take without it messing up also can i charge the battery inside doors i might wanna charge it...
@@kevinthorn9672 Most are fine on 87 octane regular unleaded. You can find different opinions on charging a battery indoors. It could be dangerous, but many get away with it. Google will give you all sorts of answers.
Where did you buy this
+Frank Marchio FamilyGoKarts. They were good to deal with. No issues getting the paperwork or anything.
Cool, is a video to see it but building?
YahikoTG - I did a whole PDI assembly series : czcams.com/play/PLm3-Rt5jsolvEQcIl1CMZGW5Yj_kP4Wjc.html
xD i saw all the videos yesterday , im about to buy one and im glad that you make this video , the only problem is with the battery , i dont have that to charge my battery
A battery maintainer is a very good thing to own for your scoot. IMO it'll be worth spending the money on it. I use the Battery Tender Jr, about $25, but you can get them much cheaper in other brands that should work.
oh Really ?? Very Cheap , well Thanks Again Very Good Video , i Hope if i buy the Scooter i can do all that you did and yours video without problem
Good luck with it and if you do it and problems or questions arise there's a whole community of scooter enthusiasts like me at 49ccscoot.proboards.com willing to help where they can.
did it come with a title @ all?
+Kenny Friest It came with the paperwork needed to register and get a title from the MVA.
where can i buy one ?
+scroeffie Lots of places. Mine was from familygokarts online, but plenty of places sell them. You may find them locally. Sometimes local dealers charge a lot more than you can get the for online, but sometimes they beat online deals.
where can i order a scooter from china
Daniel Roman If you're looking for direct from China, I don't know. There are tons of sites that sell Chinese scooters though. I got mine from FamilyGoKarts and was pleased with the experience. Didn't have any trouble getting paperwork etc...
where was the front wheel ??????????????
+STYLE byTREND If you look at about the 0:50 mark with the box off, the wheel/tire are in bubble wrap and tied to the top of the crate above the seat.
oh
*****
I didnt even know that scooters come in boxes
you live in georgia do not need a driving licence for taotao scooter 50cc
mines coming tomorrow fuck yeah
Congrats on the new ride. Good luck with it.
you sound so enthused...lol
Is this legal in the UK? Do you need a licence? Can it be driven on the roads or is it off-road? How old do you have to be to ride it? 16?
idk about england but in LV u need to be 14 yrs old to drive with 50 CC
I have a 2012 taotao was running fine but when I did a valve adjust the exhaust keeper nut came off and the scooter bogged out. Fixed didn't see any harm done and got scooter to restart off a jump box. I can no longer get it to start and I have fuel leaking from air box about 5 minutes after trying to to start. Do you think I'm flooding the crab is why it won't start? It tries after awhile on jump box bit never fires off. Think petcock is stuck open little cuz when i pull fuel lunge from crab I have a small stream and scooter is off
Have you checked the float height to make sure it's not stuck or hanging and allowing too much fuel in?
No I haven't. It's the stock carb which is sealed. I think the petcock is stuck open cus I still have fuel coming thru
Oh OK. I was tired and I guess with the typo I didn't register what you were saying. Definitely replace the petcock. A manual shutoff is much better IMO, because they don't fail unless they get old and crack/rot or something in the fuel line clogs them.
*****
*****
Ok I've changed the petcock so I am still getting fuel but it's not leacking out of airbox anymore. Someone suggested I check compression so I did. I'm get anywhere from 60-70 psi on the gauge. Was told it should be around 100-110 so would this mean my main gasket on the piston chug is bad or that I need new rings on piston. Sorry for typos it's auto correct on cell I've recently broke a hand so it takes me awhile working on scooter
