Thanks for the info. Seems simple and straightforward to me. I think I'll be doing this type of maintenance myself and let the scooter shop do only big stuff like tires.

One of the big advantages of scooters over motorcycles is the ingenious simplicity of them and the ease of maintenance. Good post!
