I'm still thinking about it. <br /><br />thank you for your kind words of support.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-5650022276477186162011-05-23T11:34:12.989-07:002011-05-23T11:34:12.989-07:00Hi Uncle Bob,

Rich found a twisty-tie from a plastic bag and somehow got it to start with that. The friend rode it through the rest of the season and sold the bike with that twisty-tie still in place. Some times when we get together, we wonder how long that twisty-tie kept it running.biker babyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472957923070962416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-27152602380266969242011-05-22T08:20:38.212-07:002011-05-22T08:20:38.212-07:00I guess I would start looking for a blown fuse or ...I guess I would start looking for a blown fuse or circuit breaker depending upstream of where the SAE connector you used to try and start the scooter. The weather there looks pretty similar to the weather here in South Dakota. <br /><br />Hope you get things figured out and have a great time in Victoria. <br /><br />RichardRichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-62462680381808255682011-05-22T07:49:15.512-07:002011-05-22T07:49:15.512-07:00Hope you weren't stranded on Van Island, and c...Hope you weren't stranded on Van Island, and could sort out the battery issue.SonjaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389245948579828531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-28212397104665970182011-05-22T00:13:01.138-07:002011-05-22T00:13:01.138-07:00Bummer about the battery issue, Bob.
