  Was at a stop sign when all of a sudden I was jolted forward. The force was strong enough to raise me off my seat, yet still hanging onto handle-bars. Turned off scooter, got off and approached a young female driver in a low-profile early 90's Honda Civic who was apologizing. Just let her go. The scooter seemed ok. Didn't notice any visible signs of damage. Still functioning. Will take into shop to see if rear wheel or frame is out of alignment. 

  So I'm riding in the dark and switch to high- beam, then the headlights just shut off. I switch to low-beam, and still no lights. Since the scooter doesn't have hazard lights, I'm rode home (5 miles away) manually turning the left and right signal lights to be seen by other drivers.

To drivers, I must have looked suspicious and hazardous, so they call the police. Luckily, I made it home before an officer was dispatched. I saw them driving around looking for someone on a scooter that fit my description. I'm sure when they'll see me, they're going to pull me over.

Hi wkreps, yes it is a 2013. So far I have 858 miles on it. Bought it this year in Feb. Rides great. I ride in a tuck position when I go 50-60mph and sit-up straight in a relaxed position at other speeds.

The dealer didn't say which valve it was, and I didn't see the worn valve before they replaced it. They were baffled on what caused it. Anyway, the scooter runs great.
