Rolling Wrench has been very active posting daily scooter how to's on our YouTube channel. I think it would be very beneficial to subscribe if your a scooter nut, I know we are. Also we need ideas for how to videos you would like to see. We repair / service a average of 70 scooters a month. Let us know what you are struggling with or what you would like to know how to do. And if you have any questions just ask. Be sure to subscribe: www.youtube.com/user/RollingWrench?feature=watch

Pretty cool business idea! However, why are you not on scooters?

I like your reviews of Puma scoots.

I have a scooter with a trailer hitch that pulls a billboard for my other business. I should pull a tool box instead. lol

I sometimes make housecalls on my scooter. I can take 95% of all the tools I'll ever need just under the seat. A few other ones, like air compressor, lift, etc. would be nice but not necessary.
I'm actually going to purchase an Auto-moto (going to become a dealer for them) to use as a rolling toolkit. Now I just need to make a frame so I can tow another scooter with it.

Greg I do MANY house and roadside calls. I carry my 110v impact wrench and all the tools plus parts under my seat and in luggage box. If it is roadside...I approach the nearest house...explain the problem and ask if I can use an outlet. Not ONE time has anyone said no..in fact they are happy to help and watch. Then ask where they can get one...so I refer them to my buddies shop where I used to be his mechanic...and I would guess that 50% of them end up buying 1 or 2 from him..also get my name address and number for parts and repairs. Buddy that sells scoots has a sign and decal maker at his shop...and made me decals that say.."Scooter Geek Squad"... ;D Sure kept me busy this summer...

The compressor is also for filling the tires and blowing smoke, er, dust.

No we go a 30 mile radius around Denver. There is no way we could actually use the scooter as our vehicle. But I admit that would be sweet!

Sold my TaoTao CY50-B after 2 years (to a friend who needed a scoot.) Got me an ATM50-A1. Happy :)

I've been watching your vids, thanks so much for making them. Actually, watching one of your vids gave me the inspiration to go and purchase my new scooter which is arriving in a couple of days. Please make more! It would be nice to see more vids about doing a PDI on a new scoot, maybe you could do a series of them to show us how you guys do things.
