Is my helix overheating?

After a ride I can smell a kind of burning scent but the temp gauge never goes over 2 bars and it has plenty of fresh coolant. I can't recall ever hearing the radiator fan turn on but I figured it was just quiet because it's so small. If it wasn't for the smell I wouldn't think anything was wrong the bike works like normal and I don't feel heat coming off it.

Any advice?

Anyone deliver pizzas?

Recently got a new job delivering pizzas, my car isn’t great on gas due to the giant tires on it. Wanted to buy something more gas efficient but the problem comes with actually carrying the food. Is there a good luggage rack I could put on? Or some sort of backpack to carry them flat?

Exhaust problem

Hi guys. After falling in love with the Honda Spacy, I had to get a Helix too. Bought a project, that's overall in good shape. But this little pipe is rusted, and about to snap. Anyone knows where I can find one?

What tires do you ride on?

I need new tires for my '86 Honda Helix. My last set of factory Bridgestones lasted about 4-5k miles.

What tires are you guys riding on, and what do you recommend? I definitely ride in dry weather. Thanks!

04 Twins

Just picked up this 04!

Never ridden on a scooter so Ill be learning. Thought the combo was too cool. Previous owner mentioned the scooter bogging down over 30/35 mph, something like a misfire? He also blew a coolant line on the way over. Ill be taking a look at it in the upcoming weeks.

I know theres alot of info on this sub which Im excited to comb through. Any tips are appreciated!
