Hey everyone! So a friend of mine has a scooter (yes, its a scooter, but it's got two wheels and a motor so don't discriminate ;) ) that was tragically dropped on its right side in the driveway while pushing it out of the garage.
Now it won't start/turn over/anything.
Instead of letting her sell it away I insisted on checking it out and fixing it up because it's a really nice scooter. So, any ideas?
The fall smashed up some of the handlebar, electrical, and switches. I just saw it today and started taking off the plastics to figure out why it won't start. I haven't taken it apart yet but any ideas what's wrong? The plastic starter and ignition switches are slightly cracked but still connected to the wiring so I think they work. I'm going to get ahold of a voltmeter to check the battery. I'm also planning on taking out the spark plug to check that. What else should I test?
Thanks a bunch!
