Hey everybody! I have not been in here for a few years but wanted to let people know my B&W 150 has ran very well, and I have about 10,000 miles on her already! I went through a set of tires and replaced the belt at 10K mi. Rollers were still very good and round ..no flat spots. I am still getting around 65 -70 MPG on gas. I have been changing all the fluids, plugs and checked valve gap like Mfg says....so far so good. I still say this was a good scooter for the money. I have done a couple 1K mile trips on her and packed her down with sleeping bags, tent food...etc. Although I have a Burg 650 for major traveling I still get a kick out of doing back country roads with the 150. I'll keep you posted as I go along...safe riding all!  Oldhummer

I was wondering if the 90W Gear Oil for the B&W 150 is GL-4 or GL5 ?  Do the KYMCO Shops use GL-4 or Gl-5 gear oil? I understand if there are any bronze or brass bearings in the gear reduction system you cannot use GL-5 oil, as the additives, phosphorus and sulfur will eat up the bronze bearings. The shop manual I have doesn't say the specifications of the SAE90W oil??  Oldhummer
