yeah I thought 800 seemed a little high not by much but a little bit
but it is in perfect condition starts right up
nice and clean
I think I am going to get it
I don't know much about scooters
But I assume I should start w/ a more air in and out
And maybe bigger squirters in the carb (if it can be done)
that should pick me up to around 35 ???
that would be the target speed at least

if I could hit 35 I would be really pleased w/ that I don't need much else
Would you say 800 is unreasonably high, Or just a tad.
It seems like an OK buy considering he is also getting it tagged for me which is around 50 in Illinois

$800 is too high $600 is more like it. you can gear a spree to go 40 but you will be push starting the thing going downhill.
