Hi all
I have a standard 1970 125DL that I hope to restore. It's been stood for sometime and the other day when I was sat on it (pretending to ride to Brid :P ) I realised that I could select any gear without pulling the clutch in. What I know about scooters thus far, you could write on the side of a chip. I was wondering whether this was due to the scooter being stood a long time without use or something worse? Really appreciate any help or advice regarding this. Many thanks in advance Chip

I can select any gear without pulling the clutch in or starting the engine,but I have to move the back wheel backwards and forwards to select the gears.I think thats quite normal.
