Scooter Service & Scooter Repair - Gas and Electric
Scooter Underground performed scooter repairs and scooter tuning up until December 31, 2011. Due to difficulty finding a suitable new facility at our flagship Victoria, BC location, we decided to become an online only store and resource for scooter enthusiasts.

Gas Scooter Service
What you will find on these pages over the next little while is information required to assist with scooter service and scooter repair, and links to people and places who we think are capable of doing these repairs.
We will still source and sell performance parts and accessories, but we will affiliate ourselves with people who we know can help you with the installation of parts and accessories and keep your scooter in prime running condition. Whether you ride, Honda Scooter, Yamaha Scooter, Vespa, Piaggio, Derbi, Aprilia, KYMCO, SYM, Peugeot, PGO, CPI, Stella, Genuine scooter...we will try to keep you informed of the top service places and what they specialize in.
If you have been in an accident with your scooter, this site will also try to provide you with the best information to get timely repairs done through your local insurance provider and authorized repair shop in your area.
A few scooter service observations:
Some things we've recently noticed:
- Scooter riders tend to put off maintenance
- Scooter riders hate costly repairs
- Scooter riders want their scooter to be dependable
- Scooter riders prefer repairs to be covered under warranty
...So, follow the damn maintenance schedule for your scooter and you will be a happy camper!
It's better to err on the side of conservatism. If you do not ride your scooter for lengthy periods, it's a good idea to bring it in for service at least annually to get everything checked.

Want your scooter to be the trusty, reliable, steed you first bought? If so, you must get regular service work performed by people who know what they are doing. (Key Point)
Scooters are unique little beasts – people who service scooters understand that. Some motorcycle and power product shops get the rookie to work on the little stuff (scooters and the like). It's best to find someone who is not working on chains saws, generators, and lawn mowers and just using scooter servicing to fill up their day. Scooters techs understand all the little nuances of gas scooters. They know about scooter performance parts, what works and what doesn't, and they've tried all sorts of experiments on their own scoots. Whether it’s a 500cc fuel injected gas scooter or a 50cc vintage Honda Cub, a scooter expert must know how to fix it, maintain it, and enhance its performance.
Scooter Underground has spent years trying to establish relationships with the best parts suppliers. We can almost guarantee that we can get the parts for your scooter and have it back on the road more quickly than any other shop.
