Following a recommendation from Mike on the Electric Motoring forum I went for the 3.50 profile instead of the original 3.00s, as these [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hohisilver.wordpress.com&amp;blog=5795002&amp;post=192&amp;subd=hohisilver&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

The scooter&#8217;s been behaving itself more or less impeccably, notwithstanding a small problem with the throttle response that I think is to do with the controller.
