    Hi


    Hoping somebody can point in the right direction re the actual service schedule for the titled 45 km per hour model? I've 1391 Kms on the odometer


    It appears to be one and two years post purchase or 1,000 and 2,000 kms


    I bought my bike off Megabikes in Dublin but am domiciled in Mayo


    So if possible I'd prefer to get the bike serviced more locally ( hassle with transport costs etc )


    Thanks

    What I'd do in this case is get onto a Vespa forum and someone probably has the official service manual which you can download.

    Have a look here, someone posted a link to the manual in here: https://modernvespa.com/forum/topic182983

    I don't know much about electric bikes really but, given there's no oil to change etc, I'd imagine the service consists of checking things like the belt or chain drive, brake pads and discs, ensuring fasteners are still tight, maybe the odd software upgrade too.

    Thanks very much Fabio

    Downloaded the service manual there

    I'll register on the Vespa forum

    There seems to be a nearly need for a service

    Bit of a nightmare if I've to get the bike transported up to Megabikes

    what is there to service, when it has no engine ?

    Brakes, maybe.

    General suspension / chassis checks.


    You could try Mayo Moto Repair in Aghamore, I see him posting on the net regularly - he might be able to help. Can't hurt to ask. 089 497 2966

You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”
