Hello I am new to the scooter I was rideing a dl 1000 in 2008 got accident was hit bye older lady not looking ,was having flash backs ,I got 1995 z28 the next spring an was thinking not looking back ,the flash backs seem to have gone away ,it was weird even in my car I would feel was going to get thrown as I was in accident,anyhow all is good now an I seen a friend got 150 for a song,so I looked into this scooter thing ,about 10 years ago I buy a Chinese atv ,it never ran right so I gave it to neighbors kids they could not fix it either ,I did hear they came along way sine then ,I bought from power ride outlet,was great price for all the things you get in there scooters $1850.00 an is getting hear Monday tomorrow I was suprized the title an bill of sale came Friday an look fine ,now I live in newhamshire whear I guess I will have all winter to check loose bolts do some addons,now I did note that the new jonway yy250t when do google search is easer ,I wonder if I know only few things changed from the 2008 ones ?I wonder if they change few thing from ones that were left from 2008 calling them 2013 I guess that something one may never know though the title say nov 15th 2013,like the wheels are not red ,I could have bye the left over 2008 for 100.00 less ,it seemed a no brainer to choose the newer scooter ,I did do alot of research on them 25 4 stars to 5 rated .another question is since it got so cold suddenly like 0 with wind chill today ,they said they do the 20 minute pdi an oil change service on it ,an I got oil already extra plug then gear oil ,I wonder question if I should wait to spring to run it ,how do they run in real cold weather an being brand new ,they had the upgrade italika carb adjustable was 59.00 an epa approved ,should I run it long enough to get some stabil in the carb ,I am excited to try this scooter as it is as big as the 650 burgman or close an looks great an I am 6ft4 250,thank you for reading ,I am sure I may have a lot of questions one thing I read was to learn to do you own work an save ,oil things like that easy ,I guess adjusting valves they have video on,my breaking plan in to just ride it not to hard not to easy ,they said 300 miles 30 to 40 ,wich is good for me ,though there is one short stretch about 3 miles is 55 an so I did get 1 year parts wich I thought was good within30days I can get 2 more year for 179.00 I am thinking its worth it ,yes not to redline it an keep the rpms up an down ,like I said I did alot or research on this bike ,though I did not know it was the jonway yy250t ,I knew lots of names for like 2 different bikes an a an b .I ask them to leave off the stickers that look butt ugly mc250 b they said sure we wont put them on ,I figured I may put something says a woping 16,6HP hhehehehe or nothing ,when I get it unpacked will load pics ,? I guess its 244 somewhear I had hear someone say the newer one 257cc ,but it says 250cc on title ,I love that this scooter looks real close an almost as big as the Honda Goldwing ,friend had one he is near 70 now .I had said lighter easyer to ride ,or to pic up right ,thanks I am sure I will have a lot of question an hope I can also help with my limeted knowledge,but I guess with time we all learn ,I found I no longer need the most powerful machine they have just something that is sharp an gets me from point a to b ,scooter professer looks like a great place to learn thank you scott
