Greetings from Kansas City, Missouri. I am new to the site and to scooters in general. My GF and I saw a scooter and I started researching them a little and I ordered one from stateoftheartpowersports.com/ which also sells them on ebay as tricountyautogroup. I ordered the Roketa MC-54(B?) on July 2nd. I have yet to get a confirmation about shipping. The guy who answered the phone seems to be very knowledgeable about the scooters, very helpful and friendly. I'm hoping to have a positive experience when I get the thing. My main question here is just this: I see a lot of people are asking questions about this or that problems they have, but what is the overall level of satisfaction with this particular scooter? Also, was it what you expected? Have you gotten the MPG and overall experience you were looking for? Thanks

Welcome.. I can't answer your questions on the Rocketa but someone here surely can. Hope you get it soon.

I got my scooter today and I was more than satisfied with the thing. As soon as I get it licensed I'll be riding this as much as I can. It's FUN! It went together easier than I thought it would and ran fine once the gas got primed. I changed the oil as recommended, I put KN air filter oil on it, but I'm going to wait on the gear oil and the antifreeze until after the 300 mile break in period. The oil that came out of it really looked weird to me. Was kinda bluish. I used castrol GTX 5W30 oil which was suggested on x1scooters.com/scooterpdi.html The engine said 15w40 on it and I suppose since I'm only gonna drive on it for 300 miles I can switch afterwards. Anyone got any oil suggestions? Or did I screw up?
