What does the wear on the tires and other parts tell you?

What does the wear on the tires and other parts tell you? looks like 3000 ish miles to me. I found a few examples on modernvespa of people with similar things happening where the odometer reset related to some battery type issues.

Ordered tires from Amazon and they arrived in two days. Put them on on Wednesday.
Belt from racinplanet finally came on Friday. Went for the Malossi.
I drove it to a state park today and it really drives nice! Has plenty of power. I kept up with all the traffic on the roads I took. Speedometer went over 80 downhill, but the fly screen definitely wasn't meant for that and was bent almost all the way in. I didn't have the gps speed going so unsure of actual speed.
Too much traffic to open it up on a straight highway to max it out. Real nice ride!

Starter motor died on this. I'm wondering if it was on the fritz 6 years ago when the previous owner stopped using it. One day i almost couldn't make it home but eventually got it to start. Now i'll likely miss out on the remaining not-cold riding weather. bummer

I wish a 50cc starter motor would work! The only piaggio maxi scooter starter motors i found (online) are in europe.
