FAQs

What type of fuel do scooters use?

All of our scooters recommend 91 octane or better. This is readily available at all gas stations. Most stations also offer lower octane fuels; while a single tank will likely not cause issues, repeated use can shorten the life of your motor. If you accidentally use a lower octane, just pay close attention to the motor and listen for irregular noises. If you hear anything, either bring it in to us or drain and replace the remaining fuel in the tank.

Is there additional costs to park on campus?

Just like cars there is a scooter parking pass for both Texas A&M and Blinn campuses. The good news is, they're typically cheaper! Texas A&M scooter permits only cost $54/yr (or $108/yr if you don't have a car pass).  Blinn motorcycle permits cost $75 for the Fall, Spring and Summer semesters (based on 2018 data) These passes are different from car passes in that they let you park in any designated motorcycle area. Texas A&M campus has over 60 different lots to choose from, come check out our map to find the best locations for you! Contact your school for more instructions on how to purchase one of these.

Can I use my car to jump start my scooter?

It is possible, but the electrical system in your scooter is designed to operate at a much lower amperage. Jump starting a scooter with a car will likely damage the scooter's electronics which will lead to costly repairs. We recommend purchasing a battery trickle charger if your battery needs to recharged. Or bring it to Scoots and we can test and recharge your battery at no cost! Most scooter batteries must be charged at less than 1100mA.
