wallfish 18,072 #1 Posted May 6, 2015 Bought a little gas powered scooter from Saltywright at the Zagray show. Got it running today. The grandkids and neighborhood kids had some fun riding it around the driveway. Here's a video of one of the neighbors kids. I'm an idiot and was turning the video off during shooting and on when it was in my pocket. Only got this short one but check out his bicycle helmet. THANKS Russ! The kids really enjoy it. http://vid623.photobucket.com/albums/tt316/wallfish1/scooter.mp4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 18,072 #3 Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) Just gave it a quick carb clean, covered the broken primer bulb, fresh gas and it fired up. I'd guess it does around 15 - 20 and maybe 25 going down the incline of the road. The boy in the video was going so slow because he was still a little scared of it. I had them walk next to it before getting on and give it some gas because I knew they would just gun it. He grabbed hold of the throttle and pulled full blast, panicked and wouldn't let go. Think it was good that they were a little scared of it at first so they had some respect for how easy it could be to get hurt. Once they got past that initial fear factor and were used to it, they were all flying around like little experts. Only took a couple of minutes for each of them.
