Sais they are reliable and not bad to work on. Of course like any bike if it gets abused it wont last but on the whole a good bike.
They dont have oil filters(like a c90) and one prob was owners not cheaking the oil and seizing them.

there wasnt anything said that put me off.
I dont know yet how mnay owners the bike has had of it it come with any past history so I think it will be a case of going over the bike to check things

Personally I think the Dylan is a cracking little scooter. The local Honda dealers mechanics really rate them as well.

One thing I did forget to ask the honda dealer,
Is a dylan air or water cooled?

Also,
Whats the wire going to the front wheel?


And I still cant work out what way round the engine sits?
I have no knowladge of sccoters at all and only know an bike engine not a scooter engine.
Is a dylan engine on its side?

Anybody know?
