Hey Troops,
New to scooters, not new to two wheels and a motor. Been ridin' for 45+ years. I'm still thinking about getting a scoot. I'm looking at an '09 E-Charm CF150T-5A for about a $1000. w/1700mi. on the clock. Anybody have any problems with water cooled scoots?
Thanks, Dave

Welcome Davecarlson,
Good scoot those E-Charms does it have EFI or Carb? Concerning your question some have a few problems with Water Cooled but it usually has to do with neglect, just like a car THERMOSTAT not opening or the temp Sensor going south etc and sometimes the fan.

Thanks for the reply. I have the carb version. Seems these things are just like anything else. Perform the maintenance, and check the fluids and things should be good.

Welcome Dave!!....i'd say don't rush, shop around...but yah, i personally don't have issues with my liquid cooled scoot. i love it, it permits me to do long rides without worrying about overheating,as compared to aircooled scooties..
good luck!

Well, I changed my mind. I ended up getting an '06 Genuine Blur 150. Hasn't been run in 2 years, the thing won't start, but The price was definitely right!

Well I hope the price was close to zero for an 06 Blur they do not have a good reputation.
