THIS CAUSED THE SCOOTER TO FAIL ITS INITIAL STATE INSPECTION. I WENT TO GET THIS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY AT ANOTHER MANUFACTURER-AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP IN BOSTON. ON JULY 27, 2013, DURING THE RIDE HOME FROM THE BOSTON DEALERSHIP, SCARCELY TEN MILES AFTER EMBARKING, THE GEARSHIFT SUDDENLY FAILED.

I WAS LEFT STRANDED ON THE STREET FOR FOUR HOURS WAITING FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. SEVERAL DAYS AFTER GETTING THE GEAR SHIFT FIXED MY FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING AND SO DID THE SPEEDOMETER. ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED WITHIN THE FEW HUNDRED MILES. *TR
