Moonlighting as a scooter mechanic

Dis-assembling is always easy :) I hope I can assemble it all back !

After I disassembled the muffler and all, realized I am missing one tool to remove the part I need to replace in the scooter !!

1000 miles on my scooter already.. i.e only 16 gallons of gas at 62mpg

Already 1000 miles since I got the scooter. Averaging 62 miles a gallon that's only about 16 gallons of gas !!! Even though before I bought, I read many sites that said that Chinese scooters were no good and would break after only a few miles, I have not had a single issue with mine and it does all the steepest hills of SF without any problem !! I love my 'non-vespa' Chinese scooter :)

my new Red Moped..

The new car-less life has been extremely good and not missed having a car much living in the city, but sometimes for a little trip to the beach or grocery store, I wish I had a quicker means than bus or by foot. So, I decided to buy a little 150cc moped. Love the color and the style. It'll only be for little commutes inside the city. I don't think it's too safe to be venturing out on the highways yet. Not yet ridden it a lot, as its been pretty cold and windy lately, but hopefully this weekend is weather is good, I'll venture out a bit more and try to see how it fares on the steep slopes of SF !
