I wish This time next year.

I can't use that pic anymore, my wife has lost nearly 4 stone .....me? 1 and a half stones, I am fed up of eating salads.

It's is easy enough to get into the transmission, usually, 10 or so 10mm bolts, but sometimes they hide one of the bastids.

It is not exclusively on Suzuki Bergmans, Piaggio scoots are afflicted with the same problem at times...

So, if it has not had the belt, rollers and sliders changed it could due for replacement, or overdue, if it was me I would whip off the transmission casing and take a look inside

Yeh it could! be a warped disc.

Just for you.

Na. The CV belt drive is actually the gears.

What milage has it covered?....do you know the history? Like the last belt change?

The Suzuki Bergman scoots (250 & 400c) sometimes make noise, it is usually described to sound like a Sea lion, that is down to worn belt and glazed clutch shoes...

Obviously I can't hear what is on the video. Start with the simple stuff, check the brake.... also if the scoot makes the noise with the scoot not turned on and not under load you can discount the CV transmission making the sound. Also check the oil (hopefully there will be some) in the final drive gears, they turn while the scoot is being pushed around. Also check the wheel bearings...

They are good, dare say very good, equal to the T Max, and cheaper too. Rare as hens teeth over here. There is a 2017 model on Bike Trader.......£5300

@Skippy will be wanting a AK550 next!....Braaaaaaaap!

These are what Dr. Pulley advise as a direct replacement for the standard rollers, they are a little lighter than the factory fitted rollers, most Dr. Pulley sliders are a little lighter, that helps with acceleration.

J Costa variator gives good results, but it works differently to a standard variator and needs a little more frequent maintance.

Add some Dr. Pulley variator sliders for better acceleration, or go the whole hog and install a J Costa variator. Twist and go gear changing is so last century!

What a difference a couple of weeks make!, scoot has been up for sale since last Friday, this time?, not 1 single enquiry.

Magazine more likely that it was the Daily Male.

Oh the embarrassment

Xciting!............... don't pull the rear brake lever thinking it's the clutch I did the 1st time I rode a maxi.

Yeh, 2011 model...500cc

This is waiting in the wings, as soon as the Daelim sells. Not this actual scoot, but one nigh on identical.
