I'm seriously considering doing some performance enhancements to my S150 (ie 190 kit, variator, etc) and would like to know from any of you who have done it in Southern California, specifically Orange County, who do you recommend to have it done at.

From searching the forum, I've seen mentions of:
1. Massimo
2. Greasy
3. Scooter Shop in Orange??
4. Fabio??
5. Anyone else??

I'm located in Irvine, and so my range is limited, unless either of these mechanics can do a pick-up.

Thanks for any advice

My suggestions:

Greasy & the Scootershop of Orange.

West Hills, far yes, but worth it.

As for the Scootershop of Orange, Greasy and a couple of my friends speak highly of them.

Does he have a pick-up service?

Also, ScooterShop of Orange website indicates that they're moving to a new location, so it may delay the work. But if they're the best solution here in OC, then I'll have to wait.

If I recall correctly, yes.

But will let greasy, "the man" answer for sure.

He knows his stuff.

Did he do your mods? Also, how is the modified scooter doing so far (ie in terms of reliability, maintenance, etc)?

Thanks for any info

Yes he does pickup but youd have to ask him the details.

Hes some mod work on Eric Calms scoot.
