Model-Year & Chassis Generation Notes
Rare 300-class maxi-scooter retaining a wide, completely flat cargo floorboard alongside Bosch ABS dual disc brakes.
Oil & Clutch Mechanical Engineering Note
Because its 271cc motor holds just 0.9 L on a mesh strainer screen, change SAE 10W-40 JASO MB oil strictly every 2,500–3,000 km plus 210 ml rear gear oil.
