Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
Ordered a new fuel cap, sump plug and washer. Just need to get the oil and filter and I'm good for a oil change. Its not done the milage but over a year and doing a over 1000 miles in a few weeks for the Cornwall trip.

Might even take it for a ride as it hasn't been out for 6 weeks. It's had a good wash as the X9ers ride got it filthy.

Re: What have you done to your Scooter today?
Yesterday... Replaced a side light bulb... with one that I had kicking about in the top of the toolbox - 'prolly after replacing as a pair last time one blew... that now seems to have blown again...
Today... Going to Halfords... gonna have a moan about the life of their brighter 501 bulbs... 2 set I have had failed, 6 months seems the life span ...
Its not the price, though they are about £8 the pair... its more the faff in replacing em... especially as some of the little lugs on the front panel of the scoot are quite fragile...
Then i'll be replacing said side light bulb, again... maybe go LED, but sometimes they don't last... maybe go cheap standard £2 a pair...
Want the Brighter HID / LED look to stand out a bit in traffic, drivers side mirrors (when they look) when commuting and filtering etc. but without the faff...
