 HEY THERE EVERYONE Just joined the forum, and just in time I think. Gotta new Baotian BT50QT-11 arriving on Monday, On Wednesday it, along with everything else I own, is being shipped to Spain before I follow it on Sunday. I'll be working in Gibraltar but living over the border in Spain, should be about a 15-20 min commute. I'm 32 and it's been a LONG time since I scootered - any tips or pointers on common mistakes and mishaps? Don't be a Stranger! HodgeyBoy

lol, Make sure u r almost constantly checking ure mirrors, u can loose a single decker bus behind u if u dont check enough, if you get a small problem with the bikes, fix them as they will only grow into bigger problems and if u ever have a problem give the friendly peeps here a shout first as many garages will rip u off and soem wont even touch these cos they have no idea about them. ally  |

Cheers,
I've already found out how useful this forum is - it's an absolute DIAMOND!
I saw the 'ped and fell in love with it so I went away and did my homework to find out what they're all about. Stumbled across these pages and realised that more or less, no matter what questions I had or problems I encountered, there'd be help at hand!
