A rubber hose in my 50cc scooter has sprang several leaks due to age, so now I have to replace it.
The hose goes under the starter motor, so I have to remove the starter motor.
But I can't remove it unless I remove the rear wheel, because otherwise there isn't enough space to work the allen key.
And I can't remove the wheel without removing the exhaust pipe and the brake pad assembly.
And the other end of the tube sits under the upper right fairing, which won't come off unless the lower right fairing is removed first.
So I have to take apart half the damn thing, and all just for a rubber hose.
I swear, whoever came up with this design needs to be shot.
