Please pass on this model. I do not recommend it.

I have one with around 1800 miles on it. Here is what I've had go wrong with it so far. I drive 3-6 miles a day, so I am not a heavy-duty user.





1) Key switch (ignition switch) has literally disintegrated twice, internally. They use some form of metal that just falls apart after a few months. I... have jerry-rigged mine to work, I don’t recommend you do the same, my wheel lock and glove-box latch no longer work because of this. I am putting a tractor switch on it this weekend.

2) Flashers do not flash anymore.

3) The dealership (Schwinn retailer) cannot get it tuned right, it has an annoying hesitation when accelerating and ALWAYS has.

4) Rear brake needs adjusting every month or so. Front never does and is powerful (disc).

5) Has mysteriously shut off on me, after going only half-mile long before the engine could have possibly overheated. After waiting a minute or two, it restarted. This happened twice.

6) The starter does not function properly. I have to hit the “start” button REPEATEDLY if the weather is cold before the starter actually does anything but whine/buzz.

7) The “Schwinn Quality” logo that sits on the instrument panel fell off the first week I had it. Some quality.

The Schwinn looks great, but I no longer trust mine. I will eventually upgrade to a Honda Shadow motorcycle when this machine finally bites the dust (which seems to be immanent) Read Full Review

Great Scooter

I've had my scooter for 2 years and never had any real problems with it. Even dropped it a couple times and it just keeps going.

NEVER HAD A PROBLEM

This scooter has never given me any problems. Ive had it for 4 years & have only had to change the drive belt($50 bucks). Ive had to adjust the back brake a couple times but thats it. Its just as dependable as any $1600.00 scooter you can buy to me. For the price i didnt expect it to even last 4... years. Read Full Review
