It could be a number of things that are making it overheat so it's not a quick fix on the side of the road. Did you notice if the fan came on when it got hot? Did you top up the scoot with coolant?
If the answer is yes to the questions then
the termostat, or waterpump, could be faulty. Could be a leak somewhere, head gasket could be gone, radiator maybe damaged.
Think you may have to bite the bullet & leave it in somewhere.
