Scooter

 Got given an arriba xs scooter with a wrecked big-end bearing. I cannot afford to buy a new crank complete from Yamaha City here in Melb. I'd eagerly grab a pre-loved one with good main & big-end bearings in place.

I dont think you will find one (I havent see one in over 7 years)

  I realy dont think you will find one. But  THEY ARE available new ( Put in a new one and you will have no drama's. Put in a second hand one and you may be buying a new one later anyway. The old saying.You get what you pay for... Or put it this way. You buy a cheap helmet if you have a cheap head.)

 You are right .. I will end up getting a new crank. This scooter is too good an opportunity to pass up for the small amount of effort in getting it all back together again.  Thanks for the support.

 

I'll update you as to how I get on.

 

regards,

 Spot on.. P.S. Ive seen the 150 arriba do well over 60k if serviced well so you should get plenty of hassle free riding
