Section 1: Sa e Riding
1-3 Sa e Riding Rules:
1. Always do a pre-ride check before starting the scooter. This will aid in preventing
accidents and equipment damage.
2. Many accidents involve inexperienced/untrained riders. Many areas require you to have a
special license or certification. Make sure that you have the proper qualifications before
riding. NEVER let anyone who is not qualified operate your scooter.
3. Many accidents between scooters and cars occur because the driver of the car did not see
the scooter rider. Because of this it is important to make your self as visible as possible
by doing the following: Wearing bright and/or reflective clothing and avoiding the blind
spots that are present in other vehicles.
4. Obey all local laws and regulations regarding the operation of your scooter. Also
operating the scooter at speeds in excess of posted limits is the cause of many accidents.
Therefore NEVER exceed the posted speed limits. This is the ONLY safe and legal way
to operate your scooter. Never ride faster than the conditions permit. If it is raining
snowing icy etc. slow down. Always use your turn signals as this is usually the only
warning that other drivers have before you make a turn.
5. Don't let yourself be surprised by other motorists. You can do this by using extra caution
at intersections at the entrances and exits to parking lots and parking garages and of
course always ride with both hands and keep both feet on the foot rests or in the foot well
area.
1-3 Protective Clothes
1. Most motorcycle accident fatalities are due to head injuries. ALWAYS wear a helmet. You
should also wear a face shield and long pants and long sleeves to prevent other injuries in
case of an accident.
2. The Exhaust system gets very hot during the course of a ride and it will stay hot after the
scooter has been shut off for quite a while. DO NOT TOUCH the exhaust system while it
is hot.
3. Do not wear clothing that is loose as this could catch on control levers the kick starter or
other surfaces which could cause dangerous handling and instability.
1-3 Retro itting
** WARNING** : Retrofitting the scooter with aftermarket parts, or removing the factory parts
can be very dangerous or i ega , and may void your factory warranty. Obey a oca aws and
regu ations regarding the scooter and it's equipment.
1-3 Loading and Accessories
** WARNING** : To prevent accidents, take extreme care when se ecting, and adding accessories
and cargo to your scooter. Improper oading or improper accessories can great y reduce the
stabi ity, and ride qua ity of the scooter. When se ecting accessories, p ease factor tire, road, and
weather conditions. Fo owing this advice wi he p you decide which accessories to use and how
to oad your scooter as safe y as possib e.
*Loading:
Maximum Load: The front cargo area can hold up to 1.5 kg (3.30 lbs) the under-seat storage can hold
10 kg (21 lbs) and the rear cargo box can hold 5 kg (11.02 lbs) and 150 kg (330.69 lbs)
3
Keep the weight of any cargo as low and close to the center of gravity as possible and load weight
equally on both sides to reduce instability. A load that is high and away from the center of gravity is
dangerous and unstable.
The scooter can be made unstable by the shifting of a loose load. Make sure to check loads often and
verify that everything is tied down and that the mountings are secure for any added cargo accessories.
Do not attach large or heavy items (such as a sleeping bag or tent) to the handlebars or front fender as
this may cause unstable and/or slow steering.
*Accessories:
Genuine accessories designed by the manufacturer for your scooter have been designed and tested for
your scooter. Because the factory cannot test every accessory you the end user are responsible for
proper selection installation and use of accessories not produced by the company. Always follow
guidelines set forth in the loading section as well as the guidelines set forth below:
1. Carefully inspect the accessories that you install to make sure they do not: Block lights
reduce ground clearance and/or turning angle or limit the travel of suspension steering or
controls operation.
2. Large fork mounted fairings or windshields or poorly designed/improperly mounted
fairings can produce aerodynamic forces that cause unstable handling. Also do not install
any accessories that block airflow to the engine or intake.
3. Make sure that your accessories do not inhibit your control of the bike or inhibit your
ability to move freely. This could lower your reaction time in an emergency and cause a
serious accident.
4. Do not add electrical equipment that will exceed the scooter's electrical system capacity. A
Blown fuse could cause a dangerous loss of lighting or engine power.
5. This scooter was not designed to pull a side car or trailer. Operating the scooter while
pulling a side car or trailer may seriously impair the handling of the unit.

help when ordering parts and also in recovering the scooter in the event of theft. The VIN is
recorded in various locations throughout the scooter. The first location is below the front luggage box
(the glove box). There is a small plastic cover about 4 inches long and about 1.5 inches wide. It is
behind this. The second location for the VIN is the vehicle nameplate which is on the left engine
hanger near the back of the bike. It is a black aluminum plate riveted to the frame. The Engine code
is stamped on the bottom left of the engine crankcase. This information is specific to your scooter.

2-7 Instruments and Indicators
1. Speedometer – Shows the scooter's speed
2. Odometer – Shows the total number of miles that the scooter has traveled
3. Turn signal indicators – These flash when the turn signal is operated indicating the
direction of an upcoming turn
4. Gas gauge – Shows the amount of fuel left in the tank.
5. High beam indicator – This will illuminate when the high beams are used.
Some special notes on the Gas gauge:
The gas gauge shows the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank. When the pointer is on the “F” (full) it's
indicating that the amount of fuel left in the tank with reserve is 6.8l (1.79 gallons ). When the
pointer gets to ¾ empty it is indicating that you should stop for fuel as soon as possible. At this point
there is roughly 1.2l (0.3 gallons) of fuel left. If you do not stop for fuel at this time you WILL run
out very soon.
2-7 Ignition Switch:
These key position “ON” which is illustrated above means that the Lights and engine can be
operated and the key cannot be removed. The “OFF” position also illustrated above indicates that
the lights and engine CANNOT be operated and the key CAN be removed.
7
2-8 Steering Lock:
When the ignition switch is at the lock position (as pictured above) the steering mechanism is locked
and therefore cannot be turned from side to side. This makes the bike harder to steal. To use this
safety feature turn the handlebars all the way to the left and with the key in the ignition turn the key
to the off position then push the key inward and turn the key counterclockwise (<==) until it
engages. This may take moving the handlebars around a bit. To deactivate the steering lock simply
turn the key clockwise (==>) until it releases.
2-8 Seat Cushion Lock and Under Seat Storage:

1. Kill switch
2. Throttle
3. Starter
9
Special note on the lights:
Your headlights may not come on when the key is turned on. Most scooters have lights that are only
active when the engine is running in order to conserve battery power.
2-10 Fuel and gas tank:
When selecting your fuel it is important to remember that your scooter takes 90 octane or higher
(PREMIUM ONLY). DO NOT use “dirty” gas old gas or gas of low or questionable quality. The
jets inside the carb are very small and will clog causing your scooter to run poorly or not at all.
** WARNING! **
•Gaso ine is extreme y f ammab e and wi exp ode under certain conditions. ALWAYS
refue in a we venti ated area, with the engine NOT running. DO NOT smoke, or
a ow f ames or sparks in the area where gaso ine is stored or where you are refue ing.
•Before refue ing, be sure that your gas is free of debris. Though there is a fue fi ter,
using “dirty” gas wi shorten the ife of the fi ter, and require frequent carb c eaning
and may damage other components.
•DO NOT over fi the tank. There shou d be no fue in the fi er neck. After refue ing,
make sure that the gas cap is on tight y. Fai ure to do so can cause a fire/exp osion
hazard.
•Do not spi fue when refi ing the tank. Spi ed fue or fue vapor can ignite, sudden y
and without warning. If any fue IS spi ed, make sure and et the area dry comp ete y
before starting the engine.
•Avoid pro onged skin contact or breathing the vapors and KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN!
2-10 Fuel Petcock:
This scooter has an automatic vacuum petcock and needs no user input to function.
2-10 Engine Oil and Oil Selection:
It's important to select a quality oil for use in your scooter. This plays a very critical role in extending
engine life and performance. We have a guide below to help you select the best oil for your
conditions. Other oils such as machine oil gear oil or vegetable oil are NOT for use in your scooter
engine.
10

Conventional oil is recommended for at least the first 1500 miles you may use synthetic after that
point
SAE 10W30 is the factory recommended oil for temperatures ranging from 14º to 90ºF. Extreme
temperature use from 90º and up requires the use of 15W40 oil The responsibility of selecting oils
outside of this temperature range is on the end user. The key is to use only high quality oil designed
for use in motor vehicles and not substitute lesser quality oils or extreme weights. When changing
the oil make sure to let the old oil drain out completely first.
** CAUTION **
DO NOT run the engine with low oil this will cause severe engine damage!
2-11 Tires:
Proper inflation of tires will give the best ride handling and safety characteristics and it increases tire
life. Check tire pressure frequently and adjust if necessary. When selecting tires select tires that are
the same size as the factory equipped tires: 130/60-13 (front) and 130/60-13 (rear)
The tire pressure should be set COLD at: ~32 PSI (225 kPa)
Special note on tires:
Tire pressure should be checked before you ride while the tires are cold. Check the tires for cuts
embedded nails or other sharp objects. Check the rims for dents or deformations. See your dealer if
you should encounter these items/conditions.
** WARNING! **
•DO NOT attempt to patch a damaged scooter tire, This wi damage the tire's abi ity to
stay inf ated, and set the whee off ba ance.
•ALWAYS keep the tires proper y inf ated. Improper tire inf ation causes abnorma tread
wear, and creates a safety hazard. Under inf ation can resu t in the tire s ipping off the
rim and cause a sudden oss of tire pressure, which cou d ead to a serious accident!
•Riding on excessive y worn tires is dangerous and adverse y affects hand ing and
traction.
•Use of incorrect tire sizes is dangerous and cou d cause an accident.
When the tread depth on the tires reaches 1.5mm REPLACE THEM. DO NOT RIDE YOUR
SCOOTER WITH LESS THAN 1.5MM OF TREAD ON THE TIRES. YOU COULD HAVE AN
ACCIDENT, CAUSING DAMAGE, INJURY AND EVEN DEATH!
