radio

replaced the headlights today and found why the radio was not working. Speakers were not plugged in. NICE PDI POWERRIDE. Now when i look at the radio, under the hood, all the wires seem to be connected. But, there is only one pair of wires to plug the speakers into. plugged into right speaker and works great. Is there a coupler missing to plug the other speaker into? or do i just splice both speaker wires together and let it go?

cooling fan

I have a roketa 54-250 and when i ride it the fan comes on at just below the half way mark on the temp gauge. does good but have a question. When i shut the scooter off and the fan is running, should i let the fan continue to run until it cools down or is this just wasting power?

Ive change the oil engine and gear. bled the brakes. Now need to flush and refill the radiator. I know to drain i unscrew the bottom of screw of the fuel pump. once drained what are the proceedures to fill. do i need to burp, and if so where? and how?

[replyingto=barnie]Barnie[/replyingto]bleed the front brakes. Big difference. Trying to do the back and get one screw out of the reservoir, the other screw is so tight im afraid i will strip it any suggestions.

i would assume the best way to drain the lines is to open the bleed screw and pump?

my roketa 54-250 is slow to stop. only have 84 miles on it. Back brakes do very little but i can feel a drag when applied. handle is firm on both front and rear. took the caliper off to look at pads. not really glazed but found small holes (like breaks in the pad) I have a lot of hills here in the mountains of NC and am concerned with stopping power on the downhill slopes. With the bike up on the center stand if i turn the back tire it turns if i apply the brakes and turn the brakes hold. This may be normal but i really have to pull hard to stop on a downhill grade.

need a little help with changing coolant in a roketa 54-250. radiator cap under seat. water pump located overflow tank in console next to gas tank. I assume the bottom screw on the water pump and the radiator cap off to drain. cant see the overflow tank other than its mouth. Is there an easy way to see how much is in the overflow without taking panels off? Once i have drained all fluid and flushed with water do i start it to drain all fluids? also it seems like the radiator cap is in a position which it might be below the radiator? any help would be great. thanks
