It's worse in the winter when the local authorities can't remove the used tea leaves and tea bags from the holding areas by the side of the roads. The used tea seeps out and stains the undersides of any passing vehicles. Worse than salt, and sometimes vinegar, that is used to keep the roads safe.

How many miles on your scoot? It may improve over time. That is about all I am getting too, but only 500 miles on the clock and 90% high speed riding.
