Either because he&#8217;s broke OR he has a problem with paying mechanics because mechanics are know-nothing wrench monkeys in his mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only the spirits of the universe know what method he used to remove the nut that fixes the variator to the crank. Same for how he put it back together, but <em>OBVIOUSLY<\/em> he screwed up <em>SOMETHING<\/em> with the disassembly and\/or reassembly <em>OR HE WOULDN&#8217;T BE CONTACTING ME<\/em> because his scooter would still be running fine, like it did before he made the attempt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That the scooter has become difficult to start indicates something seriously wrong with that rotating assembly, and, unless he&#8217;s a professional videographer shooting these videos in a well appointed studio, odds are slim to none I&#8217;m going to be able to accurately diagnose anything using his videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also doesn&#8217;t sound like he expects to pay me for any of this &#8220;diagnostic work&#8221; he wants me to do on my phone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of that is besides the point because I can&#8217;t and don&#8217;t diagnose anything unless I have both EYES and HANDS on the machine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m not available this week; I&#8217;ve been booked out until the 14th or so since the 1st, but there was a random slot on the 8th open until someone else got it.

No mechanic on planet Earth does that for repair work. It&#8217;s absolutely bog standard to have no idea how much something will cost to fix until a mechanic has put eyes and hands on it, and there&#8217;s no such thing as a &#8220;free estimate&#8221; in this business. Even then it&#8217;s just an estimate that could go up or down depending on what else the mechanic finds, or doesn&#8217;t find, as they perform the work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"221\" src=\"http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-1024x221.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2247\" srcset=\"http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-1024x221.png 1024w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-300x65.png 300w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-768x166.png 768w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-100x22.png 100w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-150x32.png 150w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-200x43.png 200w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-450x97.png 450w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-600x129.png 600w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos-900x194.png 900w, http:\/\/moto2n.com\/braap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-03-at-05-10-13-Photo-Google-Photos.png 1290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mention &#8220;DIY Danny&#8221; when you book online, on the phone, or in person while I&#8217;m working on your bike and you&#8217;ll get 10% off of my shop rate, taking it to down to $130\/hr from $145\/hr until June 8, 2024. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This guy&#8217;s going to need to ride his &#8220;rattling&#8221; scooter over to Sportique or pay someone to have it transported to avoid doing any further damage to it.
