Warranties: You must have a professional mechanic (any small engine repair shop, motorcycle shop or local auto repair shop) or an authorized buylowpricescooters.com dealer assemble your new unit and do the prep work to assure your unit is in proper operating and running condition. You will need to provide proof of this when filing a warranty claim, so please keep all receipts. All warranties are in effect as along as the product has been operated and maintained according to the recommendations of the manufacturer (see owner's manual).
The most important and easiest item of maintenance is to regularly check the oil level and change the oil at frequent intervals. We suggest changing the oil at least every 1000 miles is a good idea. Most of the manual recommends changing the transmission oil every 2000 miles or 6 months. We recommend using 10-30W-engine oil and 80/90-transmission gear oil. Which oil you use is less important than how often you change it, though you probably should avoid using pure synthetic oil in a scooter, especially during the break in period. Once you have several thousand miles on the engine, a synthetic blend is okay.
Checking tire pressure regularly is also very important. Make sure your tire pressures are correct for safety and gas mileage.
Standard maintenance schedules calls for checking bolt tightness every 1000 (1609 kilometers) miles or 6 months or more frequently.
Remember your odometer may read in kilometers.
