Re: Servicing Front Hydraulic Disc Brake

Check the lever isn't on at a tiny bit; if so, take 2mm off the part that presses in the MC button dealie.

You can try to give the pistons a wiggle with some oil around the outside edge of them if sticky.

Re: Scootrs Carburetor

Float height has nothing to to with the weather, it simply regulates how long fuel can fill up in the float before the inlet valve cuts off. I've got a SCK choke kit sitting here; I don't see any difference except the choke hole is bigger. Here's ours on a Vespa: http://scootrs.com/images/vespa/pwk_...

Re: Scootrs Carburetor

>>cure the problem by cutting out a small plastic stopper under the float bowl At one point the plastic float bowl covers did have a bit there that prevented the float from opening wider for some reason; after we knew about it we removed that ourselves if present.

Re: flywheel fin length

Relatedly, how tall exactly are the Indian GP flywheel cowlings/covers (the taller type)?
