It had been a while since I'd started up the LIKE200i (built 2012, 20K miles) - and after the fuel pump finished its meow - I touched the starter button and the scooter fired instantaneously!~ (LIKE200i owners know what I'm talking about!)
No issues with the front brake following my amateur refurb.
Scooter ran like a Chinese swiss watch!
Hotel put the tables back out after our wild winter. Umbrellas coming soon I hope.
Yellow Springs anecdote
I was in YS a few days ago, on a rare solo mid-day visit. Picked up my coffee and had a seat on a bench in front of the bookstore - people watching. (saw Chappelle get in his GWagon and drive away)
Bit rough looking guy approached me and asked for "a couple of dollars". I stood up and dug out my wallet as we partially blocked the sidewalk for a handful of strollers. They spectated as I gave him a couple of dollars. He took it, turned and walked away - .... I tossed a fairly quiet "you're welcome" his way. Folks shook their heads - I shrugged and went back to work keeping an eye on things.
