Am I lucky, or is it good?
Hello!
The scoot arrived today, and looks really fantastic, aesthetically speaking.
I followed the PDI instructions and it came out really well:
Frame: No rust, a small spot of orange water stain in the "cup" on the bottom of the side stand.
Electrics: All good connections, sprayed with PTFE water proofing spray.
Hoses: All clipped on with butterfly springs, all in good condition
Oil: (this was the only bad point) it had chips (fries) in it. It was a horrible black colour, but I couldn't see any metallic residue and the filter screen was good and clean. Seeing as I'd bought the oil anyway, and the old stuff looked like itd just come out of a frier I changed it.
Idle speed: wheel just pulling itself very slowly on the stand (just nudging itself round).
First ride out for fuel was a little scary, as it was juddery on the half trickle of fuel the dealer put in, but once it was topped up, it was spot on.
I'm just a little worried, does this mean it's a good scoot, or will it have dissolved when I open the garage door in the morning? Is it gonna spontaneously explode under me just before the first due service?
Any advice welcome!
Thanks,
Ian.
