In the Dominicana, I need transportation. I can't drive and I don't have a license, so I decided to go by moped. I had just gotten my first paycheck, which was more than I expected. Remember how I mentioned my neighbor is an asshole? That's one reason. He "helped" me buy a moped. I didn't know anything about them and just trusted him because I didn't realize he was an asshole yet
He and some local guy brought me a Yamaha GrandAxis. The moped started and drove, but I had no idea what to check and at the time I had no one to ask. So I bought it for $650. A few days later, my neighbor told me I also needed to buy some paperwork from the previous owner (a lie), so I paid another $100 🤦♂️
The moped itself was decent, but over the next year I spent another $700 on repairs. I replaced all the wiring, brakes, sensors and mirrors myself using YouTube video. The forks, front wheel, tires, carburetor, CVT and belt were all repaired at a shop where the mechanics also try their best to cheat you at every turn 5 replies
