Review of a VIP Future Champion Scooter
by Anonymous
(Las Vegas, NV USA)
We paid $1100.00 for our scooter, storage compartment, two helmets and a 30 day seller warranty. It looks nice and sleek (we have red wine color). The only problem we have had so far is that on day 3 is stalled and wouldn't start up again; we took it back to the shop we bought it from and they honored the 30 day warranty and replaced the carburetor for free ($240 worth of parts and labor).
Our salesperson had made us aware before our purchase that any glitches would likely show up within the first 10 days. Since then we have had no other problems and now have ridden it over 400 miles.
We are first time scooter owners so we don't have much to compare our experience with but we did research our options here in Las Vegas on our choices from who to buy from here in town rather than through the internet. It has now been two months since we purchased and we are very happy with this scooter, we average about 80 miles per gallon.
If I could change anything about this scooter I would make the turn signals more bright and obvious during daylight. At night they are plenty adequate though. We bought this scooter out of dire necessity but have quickly grown to love and prefer our scooter over our van.

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.

Attention!
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.
