Aktiv Blå 1976

[Alessandro2017]

Hi,
hope to get some help here. Sorry I can not speak Swedish yet.
I have an Aktiv Blå from 1976. It was found in a garage and did not work. Now after cleaning carburetor, changing filters and pipes etc Now it starts and go fine. Only problem it doesn't turn. I mean the steering does his job but nothing, the scooter doesn't turn. Could this be related to the damper that has not pressure on the ground? Could anybody point me to an shop where I could find something suitable?
Thank you very much and sorry again for not speaking Swedish!

Welcome to the retroskoter board

Since you want to learn Swedish, we take the answer in your new language...

Aktiv blå svänger inte.... dubbelbandarna lyder inte styrskidan speciellt bra.
Man måste använda sin kroppsvikt när man vill få skotern att ändra färdriktning. Det brukar gå bäst om man hänger ut sin kroppsvikt på "fel" sida, d.v.s att om man vill svänga vänster så lutar man sig ut åt höger för att få tryck på det yttre drivbandet.
Även när man fått ordning på tekniken, så behöver den Blå nästan en fotbollsplan för att svänga runt.

Thank you for your welcome and for your replay to my post!
I perfectly understand the scooter is not a top machine in agility I saw some videos on youtube...
Lets put the question in another way: do you think a new dämpare ( the old one lay at the end of his travel ) would improve the steering process ?

HI again!
I have solved the problem. The scooter turns now. I have changed the stotdämpare and it is a completely different scooter now! I can post more details and pictures if someone needs it.
