Hello from St. Pete, FL!

New to the scooter realm. Bought a Brand New 2013 TaoTao ATM50-A1. $968 out the door, from Pinellas PowerSports. Runs Great! The bike shop sells all bikes and has several mechanics. He changed all the fluids on it and did 3 test runs. He said he adjusted some hoses and lines on it and tuned the valves in the engine. It goes 44-50 on my speedo and wife along side in car said, I got up to 45...

I will be poking around in here and will update as I do things to my scooter. I do feel a little hesitation from the small jet to the large one, at the 1/8-1/4 turn on throttle. So, I'm sure I need at least the idle jet changed out (New carb). Transmission and Ignition upgrades to follow this summer...



-Shane

Welcome to the zoo. Have you joined the St Pete Scooter Trash yet? Great local club that has 50cc rides all the time. Do a search for them.

I moved farther away from the McDonalds and Gas station they meet at, but I might be moving back that direction. I'll be sure to go on a ride with them!
