It depends on how long your scooter has been parked and if you drained the fuel from the carb when you parked it.

I would consider removing the plug, placing a couple drops of fresh oil in the cylinder, wait a bit, and hand spin the engine to distribute the oil in the cylinder before reinstalling or replacing the plug.

I would at least pull the carb off, remove the two jets, clean and reinstall them. I would also remove the main jet needle, wipe it and reinstall. Also check / replace the air and fuel filters.

Check and adjust the rear brake. Check front brake pads for wear.

Place the scooter on the center stand, hand rotate the tires and check for stiff bearings. The tires I would clean, and apply some tire sunscreen to them.

Then start the scooter and allow it to run @ idle for 10 to 15 minutes, and accelerate just enough to get the rear tire moving and hold that rpm for a couple minutes to get the cvt components moving freely.

btw.. light checks can be performed with just switching the key on, not running.Plus check the horn operation.
