Engine Break-In
• This is the most important time for the engine and the life of your scooter, because your
engine is brand new, you should not carry excessive loads or ride at a high speed for a
prolonged period of time. Vary your speed, do not operate at a continuous speed. You
must change the shipping oil and replace with 5w50, 10w50 or 15W50 synthetic

Check and Adjustment of Valve Clearance
• Excessive valve clearance will cause noise and engine damage. Little or no clearance
will prevent the valve from closing and will cause damage to the valve and the bike will
have loss of power. Check the valve clearance when the engine is cold.
• Remove the center hole cap from the case cover, generator cover and cylinder
head cover.
• By using a T spanner, rotate the generator flywheel counterclockwise until the T mark on
the flywheel lines up with the index mark on the view hole. In this case, the piston may
either be on the compression or exhaust stroke. The adjustment must made when the
piston is at the TDC (top dead center) of the compression stroke, and both the intake and
exhaust valves are closed.
• This condition can be determined by moving the rocker arms. If they are free, it is an
indication that the valves are closed and that the piston is on the compression stroke. If
they are tight and the valves are open, rotate the flywheel by 360 degrees and realign
the T mark to the index mark.
• Check the clearance of both valves by inserting a feeler gauge between the adjuster
screw and the valve stem.
• The intake valve clearance should be .002 inches and exhaust valve clearance should
be .0024 inches.
• If it is necessary to make an adjustment, loosen the lock nut and turn the adjusting
screw so there is a slight resistance when the feeler gauge is inserted. After completing
the adjustment, tighten the lock nut while holding the adjusting screw to prevent it from
turning. Finally, recheck the clearance to make sure that the adjustment was
not disturbed.
• Reinstall all of the parts to their original positions.
Storage Procedure
• During extended storage, store in a well ventilated area. Empty the fuel tank and start
the engine to clear out the remaining fuel.
Maintenance
• Proper maintenance is important to prolong the life of the scooter and to avoid injuries to
the operator. Check the stability of the handlebar and brake cables to ensure they are
reliable and flexible before each operation. Brake cables may need adjusted after
excessive use. The front tires should be properly maintained at 28 PSI and the rear at
32 PSI Under inflated or over inflated tires result in performance loss, tire wear or even tire
damage. The scooter should always be kept in a clean condition and may require some
cleaning after each use. Always use a clean soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or debris that
you may of encountered while riding. Any moisture or rain should be wiped off prior to
storage. Avoid operating the scooter in rain or through water puddles. Excessive
moisture to the electronics will damage them. Avoid storage of the scooter in moist
areas, or near corrosive gases. Proper maintenance will help prolong the life of the
scooter and make your riding experience more enjoyable. Never exceed the weight
capacity of the scooter. Never carry a passenger. Proper care will result in many years
of use.
