How To Locate A Scooter Repair Shop

By Komal Sinha

Many people hesitate to buy a Chinese scooter because they fear they will not find a mechanic to work on their scooter in the event it needs repairs.

Unless one lives in a remote area, it should be fairly easy to find a mechanic that works on Chinese scooters. Here is what we do when a customer needs to locate a scooter repair shop:

1. Go to maps.google.com
2. Click 'Find Businesses'
3. Enter 'motorcycle repair' under 'What'
4. Enter the zip code of the area being searched under 'Where'

Ignore all one brand shops (Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Vespa...) and custom chopper shops; but do call all the multi-brand and all others from the resulting list.

When talking to a potential mechanic, consider the following: many mechanics are reluctant to work on Chinese scooters because they either had one in and could not get parts for it, or they heard about some horror stories where a scooter stayed in the shop for 6 months with no parts. If the mechanic that is closest is refusing to work on the scooter, ask if they would accept to work on it if both the scooter and the replacement part would be brought in at the same time. It may take a little convincing but it is not hard to find a mechanic.

It's a good idea to locate a scooter repair shop prior to buying a scooter, but it is not a prerequisite. Only people in remote areas should worry about finding a repair shop.

Compression Check. If you just acquired your scooter, you should first do a full inspection before you try to get it running. If this is the case, I'd do a compression check first because it's easy to do. First, check the quantity and condition of the engine oil. Hook up or purchase a good battery. Leave out the spark plug and crank the scooter for ~5 seconds. This helps to circulate the oil. Let it set for ~15 seconds and then do it again. It's not a good idea to continuously crank the starter because it can overheat and wear out prematurely.
