Is there a simole method to remove wheels to change a flat if I should get one on the Super 150 or do I need a shop to do it?
Thanks!

I haven't had the wheels off of mine yet. Removing the front wheel looks real easy, not so sure about the rear. Do you just want to remove the wheels or do you want to install new tires too?

Well without having my scooter yet was hoping to learn if I could repair a flat myself or insert a tube, or have a spare tire available if need be.
Cant seem to find any repair manuals so far.

Don't know about the Super 8, sorry. If you want a little peace of mind about flats, carry a cheap little tire plugging kit and a small foot pump with you everywhere. I carry both if I'm going any distance from home. A plug will at least likely get you home or to a shop where a more permanent fix can be done. Make sure the glue in the plug kit is fresh, not old and dried up.

I carry a tubeless tire repair kit and a CO2 inflater for temprary repairs if I get a flat on the road. Here's a link to the tool kit I carry with me on the Super 8:
