What are important factors to consider when buying a used scooter?
Hi everyone, first of all, I'm not very familiar with scooters. I'm also aware that a description alone can't tell you exactly what's going on. Nevertheless, I'd appreciate some answers.
It's a 50cc Kymco Sento. It has about 2,300 km on the clock, but it's 23 years old. I know it depends on the maintenance, care, etc., but I'm still a bit concerned. 23 years AND only 2,300 km, so it's basically just been sitting around. Can anyone who knows tell me 1. what I should look out for (noises, brakes)? I know that, but maybe they have some good tips. 2. Would you advise against buying it right away, given its 23 years?
thank you in advance
Am stärksten von der Alterung sind Gummi- und Kunststoffteile betroffen, also beispielsweise Reifen, Kraftstoffschläuche, Ansaugstutzen, Simmerringe, Keilriemen, Dichtungen usw usf.
Einen Roller in dem Alter kauft man als Bastelprojekt für einen kompletten Neuaufbau, nicht als fahrbereites Alltagsfahrzeug.
Vielen Dank für die Antwort. War hilfreich 🙂
