What did £107 get you, sounds a lot for service parts, may consider a Sym in the future so interested to understand potential costs.

roller weight's £22.31 , belt £50 , air filter £18.44 , oil plug o"ring 99p. all plus vat = £107.89p plus free delivery for over £75 orders. from dimon motorcycles in gosport.

Just for my own interest I priced your parts from the place I get mine from in Greece and it came to £96.21 inc shipping, a little cheaper but once again we end up paying more here. With regard to DIY servicing. I had a 4 year extended warranty on my Kawasaki but it had to be serviced by the main dealer. My annual service cost was more than I pay to have my 3lt Audi A 4 serviced, never again. Theses scoots for the most part are easy and fun to service, save yourself a packet.
