Well, I looked on the internet for new replacement cabel for speedometer. I went to the shop, where I buy all my parts for my scoot. On the website, there was writen, that shop has it on stock. After work 8 am, I drove there and waited 30 minutes, autil the shop was opened. Then the guy at that shop told, that the 4 EUR cabel is out of stock. Deam. And I brought an 12,50 EUR part, what was too long and broke. For the 12,50€ I could buy 2 and half tanks petrol for my scoot. I was lucky, that I had some money, to order the 4 EUR part.

Got the right speedo cabel and noticed about 5 cm difference between the 12,5€ and 4€ one. Now the speedo works fine, but the fist snow came again unexpectedly in my country. Deam...

Now meanwhile my kick start assembly is going bad, so I did dug up my old battery, charged it up and replaced it. Reason for the swaping back to old battery, was the new one went bad, because I made a mistake and charged it with car battery charger, that was not configured to use with motorcycle and scoot batteries. Now I can again start my scoot, with the engine start button.
However I do have to replace few things:
1. All the wiring for the scoot. 2. Buy a secondary battery. (and one for my second scoot) 3. Replace rear brake pads. 4. Replace rear brake cable. 5. Replace front headlight. 6. Maybe replace the spark plug or Clean it. (and one for my second scoot) 7. Replace variator cover. 8. Replace all the kick starter assembly parts. (and for my second scoot) 9. Replace the kick starter lever. 10. Maybe replace the rear luggage box. 11. New starter and electrical stuff (for my second scoot).

Right now I have bad rear brakes: After I brake with the rear drum brake, then the wheel locks up and it is hard to push the scoot. I think the problem is the brake cable or brake pads. 90GTVert , what do you think? Today I did order few things to my scoot: 1. Rear brake cable 190cm 2. NGK C7HSA Spark Plug 3. New Battery Fullbat - YTX5L-BS

You should probably check it over. See if the lever returns at the rear.

As long as you are fine and nothing was really busted up, I suppose it can be chalked up as riding experience.

Well, The right side mirror connection threads are busted, now the mirror wobbles in the hole. Few skraches came too. I checked the rear brake madness too, The cable part moves, but the thing with the red ring, shown on the picture is not moving at all, when I apply the rear brake.

You might need to pop the wheel off and have a look at what's happening in there if you don't see anything stopping it on the outside.

Today I checked the rear brakes. The cabel works, but I will replace it any way. The other part, that holds the cabel near rear wheel, well that does not move at all. So I need to remove the rear wheel and clean everything. I will replace the rear brake shoes too. Now I need to get meself an impact tool for the job - (550€) Deam.

Well, I got the wheel nut off and now the wheel does not come off the axle. When I pushed the scoot forvard, then was little bit hard to push it and backwards was impossible. It was so hard. Now I´m thinking, maybe the problem is with the brake shoes or gearbox and wheel bearings. So I need to take whole gearbox apart.
