Things hadn't been as I had expected ride wise on the scoot. The front end had been a little sloppy since I got it. I finally got the chance to pickup a tyre pressure gauge. It should be roughly 30 psi front and rear, I had 20 rear, 12 front. All fixed up now! I will be monitoring it more closely from now on!
Update: After a 30 minute ride to check out the new pressures the scoot does ride a lot differently, a lot more squirrely even with very relaxed arms. I might drop a few psi out of the tyres (or tires if thats your thang), the slight gain in speed is still there even though I was riding into a very strong headwind.
The ride home was amusing, I took the quick and fast route and the side winds were very strong, with the new harder ride the bike was skitting sideways which was great fun. Its fair to say I have the aerodynamics of a cathedral which doesn't help.
