Hi Guys and Dolls! We had the chance to buy a 2001 Yamaha Vino so we did! ;D Now, I need to find a gas tank and a seat for this little girl. Anyone have one they want to part with? Know of anyone that can offer a better deal new than $112-tank, $129-seat from cheap cycle parts? Looking to turn this thing around to a customer for work scoot. Do you have any opinions on this bike? Should we just junk it for the $50 we spent? Oh, it also needs tires.

What ever it takes Alleyoop!! LOL Just had a guy come up, wanted to know if we wanted it for a parts bike. Add gas, and it runs good. Kinda worried about the oil on the passenger side. But if we can get her running for under $300, we could make a little bit off of her. We've got an 18 yearold girl that brings in her truck, she wants a scooter. I figure we could ask $500.

What do you mean OIL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE?? do you mean on the right side where the FLywheel is? It could be a crank oil seal or the gasket that holds the cover behind the stator. Alleyoop

Got the little schnit up and running! LOL Now my dad wants me and Dwayne to race around the back yard! Can you just see that? My big old 250 and that tiny wittle Vino, he'd do donuts around me in the yard! On the open road I'd take him, corners aint my thang. Going to have to get some fenders for the back and an ignition switch, someone hotwired it when they lost the key. But for $50, not a bad investment. Now to see how hard it will be to get it titled. May end up selling her as a parts bike, a friend that works at a salvage yard says it costs about $500 to get a "lost title" "salvage title". If anyones interested in a good scoot, no title, let me know before we sink money into her, we'll give you a great deal too.
