Putting a scooter away starting in January

TaoTao Racer-50 in blue. What should I upgrade???? I'm thinking battery, belt, spark plug, plug boot, hoses, and carb.

The only thing I plan to do with my old scooters is keep the batteries charged. A motorcycle battery maintainer ... you don't want to let them sit and over charge and you don't want them to sit and go dead. I use 100% gasoline so no special fuel stabilizer. The lawnmowers and scooters do OK over the winter, or have so far. Come spring, I get them started and running and go from there, it's good to have a spare drive belt. That's one thing that when it breaks you don't go anywhere till it's fixed.

Went to the cycle shop today. They only had a red one left so it went on layaway.
