I just got this scooter and it runs great. The fuel consumption isn't as good as I thought it would be but it's still better than a car. I know nothing about this scooter and was wondering where I might go to find out about what engine it has and where the cooling fan wires are suppose to run to. They had it hooked up to a toggle switch.

The motor look at it and see if it is a VETICAL HEAD or HORISZONTIAL. The reason they probably put a toggle switch on the fan is because it is not coming on automatically. Probably the Sensor is not working and they did not trust it so it was causing the fan not to come on and overheating. So with the toggle switch when they see the temp climbing they hit the toggle switch to turn on the fan to cool it down. Alleyoop   |

Thanks for the info Alleyoop and the photos. Mine is the cf moto 244cc. Do you know if those are decent motors or not? My temp gauge doesn't work either. I guess I need to test some wires. Also, I rode it home from work the other night in a light rain and after a few hours, tried to start it and nothing. Blinkers and horn worked but nothing else, battery tested good, anybody have that problem before? Thanks for the help all.

SCOOTER DO NOT LIKE WATER  It can short out or ground out things and problems start until everything dries. The 244cc motors have been around for decades they are very good motors very reliable. Alleyoop |

I removed the toggle switch that was hooked to the fan, now I need help with the wiring. Do the fan wires run to the sensor at the bottom of my radiator or am I way off? Also, does the sensor on the radiator go to the temp gauge if not the fan? Thanks for the info, I do appreciate it.

Here is the TEMP SENSOR ON THE MOTOR: Which is probably bad that is why the guy put in a direct 12v to the fan. The way it works is one wire always has 12v and when the temp gets to a certain degress it makes contact with the other wire and sends 12v to the fan. Alleyoop  |
