I purchased a new 2008 CF Moto/QLink Pegasus 150cc scooter at the Yamaha/Honda dealer in Knoxville to ride to work. I was immediately surprised at the excellent power level and reliable engine.
I drove it to work and on short trips for fun, achieving a total of 5000 miles in two years. The only maintenance issue was a loose electrical connector that caused the fuel gauge to not read correctly. It was quickly fixed under the original two year warranty.
The scooter was comfortable and stable to ride on most surfaces, due in part to the large wheels. I ultimately traded for a Yamaha Majesty 400 because I wanted to ride with a local motorcycle club occasionally and to have a larger storage capability.
The Pegasus will easily cruise at 60 mph and the water cooling always worked well in our hot Tennessee summers. Oil changes are easy for owners to do. For the price, it would be hard to find a better choice of motor scooter at 150cc.

A battery tender like the Battery Tender Jr. can make all the difference in whether your scooter will start right up each spring, after being stored for months.
Just about every scooter owner needs to have a battery tender, sometimes called a trickle charger. Unless you are lucky enough to live in a climate where you can ride all year long, chances are your scooter will be put on ice, figuratively-speaking, for at least a couple months every winter.
One of the key steps in winterizing a scooter is to protect your battery from draining during its "rest" period. This can – and will – happen if you leave your battery sitting untended in your cold scooter over the winter, even if it's in a garage or shed.

I'm Back!
Yes, I have been noticeably absent from the site the past few months. I recently lost my mother to a long battle with COPD and was subsequently plagued with a bunch of minor health problems. But I'm better now & back full swing.
I had to delete over a hundred questions that had been submitted, some because they were too old for answers to still be valuable and many because they were written in text speak, which I don't accept on the site. PLEASE... use proper capitalization & punctuation, so I can publish your question/review, etc. without editing. Thanks! :)
Wondering why your scooter question never got posted?
Chances are, there is a good reason. Did you...
If you "checked yes" on any of the points above, then I've deleted your post. Sorry, but I have standards. Feel free to re-submit, following the instructions I have everywhere on the site.
Also... all submissions have to be reviewed by me, and that can take a few days sometimes. Comments go live without approval, but still take 30 to 60 minutes to show up, so don't repost them, please.
