Tech Tips

Welcome to our Tech Tips Library! This is our collection of “how to’s” when it comes to specific repairs and improvements to your scooter.  No matter if it's changing a flat or doing a total engine rebuild, it’s our goal to build an extensive collection of the best methods, tips and tricks.

 

Starting in January 2010 we will be giving away $100 to the the best tech tip as judged by the distinguished Mr. P (it his hands you see in the current tech tips, and his wart). Mr P. will be judging the tips on the following characteristics:

  • detail & understanding
  • correctness of information
  • usefulness
  • picture quality
  • length
If you have an further questions drops us a line. Tech Tips with pictures must be submitted by the end of the month. Don't worry about format too much we can do all that. The winner will be announced the first week of the following month.


Please remember that all information on the site is bound by our user agreement. You can review our user agreement here.

 

Thanks and Now Get to Work on that Scoot.
