18) Running in and caring for your scooter
Your scooter is filled with ‘run-in’ oil. After
300km your scooter is considered to be run in
and it is important to do an oil change at this
time.
It is important to have your scooter serviced at
1000km intervals after the initial run in service.
Your service mechanic will not only change the
oil, he will also check other safety items such as
your brake light bulbs, indicator bulbs and brake
adjustment.
Having brakes/drivebelts etc inspected and
adjusted at the 1000km service intervals can save
costly repair bills.
If you ever hear an abnormal sound coming from
the scooter or it starts to run erratically during
operation take it to your service mechanic as
soon as possible.
