You see this is going to sound absurd but on my way to work last month I broke down for the first time!! I was scarred to death riding down this huge hill doing 60 mph then suddenly 55 then 50 mph. I began giving it more gas and the mph started rising again until suddenly I realized the engine died! I pulled off to the side of the road and with my mind racing as to what it might be I decided to check the gas I opened the tank and could see some gas in the tank but I could also see this plastic stick hanging in the air and I thought that is the gas intake!!
I put the lid back on the gas tank and began wondering where in the hell is the reserve switch for the tank? Well I never found it instead I got to level ground at the bottom of the hill and tried to start the scooter and it worked.
After fueling up at a station a few miles down the road I returned back to work and looked up Roketa scooter reserve gas switch, I found nothing. It turns out to the best of my knowledge to activate the reserve gas, you see the tank holds two gallons but in most cases you will run out after 1.5 gallons have been used, you have to remove the gas lid which I did while on the side of the road then put the lid back on. According to what I found which might not be correct but it worked for me this process depressurizes the gas tank and allows for the remainder in the bottom to be used but I am still uncertain on how this works.
Key note here I know your new scooter gets great gas millage mine driving up hill and going pretty fast get around 75 mpg and in the 80 range if I take it slow, but Don't Forget to Fill up Your Tank! :-)
