I finnaly figured out why my scooter will only go 40mph and then have trouble going faster. I am pretty sure it is a choke problem because after about 15...
Motorcycle carbs like the ones on scooters are CV type carbs. The do not have a "choke" they have what is called an "enrichener". This is a small needle valve...
As I remember from years past, current big bike has fuel injection, the CV carb won't work with a manual choke, so eliminating the automatic choke isn't a real...
Forgot to add, this is almost like "fly by wire" the throttle isn't directly connected to the carb's fuel circuit like on older carbs, rolling on the throttle...

Well I got all the fluids changed as well as the hoses. Unfortunately I got a battery with a bad cell. Dealer is replacing but I haven't had any luck getting...
Thank you for your response. If I plug up the enrichener hole what do I do when I am riding around in 90 degree weather and it is way to rich? ... From: "Bill...

If you remove the enrichener and plug it, you won't be supplying the extra fuel, so it won't run rich, it will just be hard to start on cold mornings......LOL ...
So why do you think I am having trouble with high speed driving for about 15-20 minutes when it is cold. Seems like once it has really warmed up it runs great...
Tom, As much as I like the 16" wheels. Because of the bad experience of yours. I ended up ordering from somewhere else with the 13" wheels. It is a 150cc also....
Have to remember about a fuel enricher (FI) circuit on a CV carb that it can only add a tiny amount of extra gas, it's enough to make the engine run rich at...
OK I guess that I have the worse luck in the world at this point. Jumped the new 150cc Scooter and finally got it to start. Now the bad part. It would only...
The only input I have for you because I also had a problem similar to this regarding electrical problems is totaly unplug the alarm module if you have one. I...
Ok for the remote I don't have one, might try this site, seems to have a good write up on them: http://abacus-es.net There's an idle adjust on top of the carb...
Did a bunch of troubleshooting last night and found the problem that caused the run away rpm's. The throttle grip had been mis-installed. It was too far...

I'm not sure this is you're problem, but it's worth a shot. My scooter wont start without holding the handbrake. The remote start bypass this safety feature....

Hi All, I have a 2006 150cc Tank and would like to find online info on rebuilding the front fork tubes. Also does anyone know what the spark plug gap should...
Hello. Newbie here. Our scoot stalls after 3 minutes of riding 50mph. Should I focus on the Fuel Enrichment Circuit, as described in earlier postings or is...
First check your fuel line. It should run uphill in a nice sweeping curve from the fuel pump to the carb. If it is too long, and forms a loop (going above the...
Sparky an probably address this better but I had something similar happen on my 250cc and it turned out that that the vacuum lines were messed up and had to be...
Thanks for the tip Ken & Sparky. I'll check the vacuum lines. Then the fuel line for any air pocket loops & give it a whirl... Manny X ... happen on my 250cc...
