    He says, he never rode it above 60-70 kmph in the whole journey. And had not stopped once in the last 150 kms after the last refill.
    You can't do much about what is already done. So don't even bother about what might have went wrong. Just get your first service a bit early and ride happily.

    And yes, he is totally fit. I am not concerned about him a bit.

    Ride Experience:
    Its Smooth and Punchy. Feels great on average Indian roads. Rode 40 Kms Non stop yesterday on Highway. It was damn comfortable. Took the Regular Pot holes/uneven surfaces with ease. BUT, BUT, BUT Dont expect the Bike like Comfort on the Heavily Potholed Roads. A 100CC bike will any day save your back on the Non Existent Rural Roads. I tested myself on such a stretch.
    Once I crossed 70, could feel some amount of Vibration on the footboard at that speed. May be, its Engine Tuning in.
    I guess, It's exhaust is louder than Activa. But it is extremely involving to ride.

    Current Odo 57Km. Will update on milege soon.

    Turns out it was overflow.. They checked it during the first service and it was fine.. Now I have a slightly different problem.. The handle vibrates.. Maybe the wheel should be aligned.. Or front suspension has become hard..
    All in all its been a good time with Jupiter.. 2000km done

    I recently bought a Jupiter.. Three days back.. And it's my first scooter.. learning to ride on it..
    Today morning it was leaking petrol from a black color small tube/hose on the right.. On closer inspection, there are two hoses, not sure from which one it was leaking.. Looks like the carburetor overflow hose.. The scooter was on side stand..

    Is this a problem and does it require immediate attention , I'll be going to the service center this Wednesday to collect all documents and manuals.. Should I service it now or can I do it on Wednesday..

    On another note, how much does the brake handle cost, my right brake handle broke while I fell.. I'm fine though .. (This was after the leak)

    Yamaha Ray-Z is also an option. Easy to ride and looks good. And you won't look too big on it
    No, the Wego looks bigger than RayZ. My cousin sister rides a Ray. Its essentially the same Ray with just new graphic. Looks really small on me. . The Jupiter's new colour(Matte Beige) has further added the confusion.

    There will be a sticker pasted (below the front seat panel, where you keep your legs) or the same will be mentioned in owners manual also.

    Cheerz!!

    It would be too heavy for her to handle in traffic. Try for lighter scoots.
