    I have learned so much about my 125 Vino from watching your videos. Ten years ago I had to park it in my garage with only 58 miles on it due to life-threatening illnesses. It's now at a shop being made road ready. Because of your videos I knew what to expect. So, at 67yo, I'm going to be riding again. Mostly in parking lots until I'm road ready myslf again. Thank you for your tutorials.

  • @linusgallitzin
    @linusgallitzin Před rokem

    I have the same carrier. I wonder how you loaded the scooter on it, because I don't trust loading it on mine. It doesn't have a ramp like more expensive motorcycle carriers. My car is a also little lower to the ground, which probably doesn't make the carrier real safe over bumpy roads. Great job on the tear down. That is an amazing deal for that price, especially if the motor started when just changing the battery. Catching the cracks in the manifold and CVT inspection was great too. Awesome job.

    • @MitchsScooterStuff
      @MitchsScooterStuff  Před rokem +1

      If you have small scooter like up to 150cc on carrier behind your car should be okay... Two people help lift it onto the carrier will work... I thought I got it on the video but didn't... Thank you!

    I had a Gilera - about same age.( same system as the Vespa ).... I replaced front / rear bulbs to LEDs - nothing more was added / needed. The flashers - I replaced the flasher relay - less work, than fiddeling with resistors.... Those who have some "special" flasher relays, and can't find them for an adequate price for LEDs - can always buy a couple of simplest LED relays, and use them together......
