well I guess unless you got a bent Philips like hex head to get the ignition off ,I guess I can cheack nall my wireing in front an have taken the bottom an from apart now ,I am guessing for now as its got hot something just need tighting,there is nothing easy to working on these things ,but buying the door trim kit help better easly get the parts off an warmer weather helps to ,I guess I may have it fixed now is a few days though it only took about 1 hour 30 minutes to take the front plastics off ,atleast now I can check all that stuff ,,I guess next it will be the rear they put thing thing together I think to make you take them apart to tighten them up aaaahhhhhhh,hope down the road it worth it

Normally the handle bars are ONE piece so maybe the part that holds it to the tree the left side is loose or broke.
Can you move the left part of the handle bar forward and backward a little? Alleyoop

Mine Trike is just like any of the 250s and it has a plate with two hold downs on each side of the plate.

ok thanks Alleoop its one peace an it does move up an down side to side as you sit on it ,I think the 3rd pic might be the culprit though I found a lot of loose nuts on the frame to the plastics ,you were right when you said we would know them in an out ,its got the 4 bolts an one threw the center of the post,its nice to have trim tool kit help separate plastics,but getting at the 2 screws one seen in pic 6 does nothing ,? I am mystified as to whats still hold that one in pic 2 ,so tomorrow I will get at it fresh an just tighten up everything,the scooter runs great is fun so far ,the fan runs full time after warm up on hotter days I guess,i should probley just plan on working everything while I am halfway there now,replaceing the lights an so on ,no bent Philips is helping hear ,,it seems the left side more then the right so hope its mabey the combo of 2 bolts on the bracket left side ,an that center one,i guess the way the got it set up thought it was not just going to fall apart like I thought , comes apart a lot easyer in warm weather in the right tools ,I am sure a challenge putting back together,only one crack on that center peace wich is a still that super glue will fix ,an time for lock tight to thanks

No you do not need to take that screw off you have 6 screws holding the cover down, Then pull gentle out below the key and it will come off. It has sort of a tab that grabs underneath. Alleyoop

Yep it could be that bolt, but now that you can see the whole thing move the handlbar and see where it has the play. Alleyoop
