all of a sudden my ped wouldn't go past around 20mph and was as if the bike was blocked from going any faster and the revs were as if they were as high as they could be. Does anyone know what this is/what it could be? Peds not running last time I checked either but this is probably just battery.edit: text colour
This could be one of a lot of things. It could be a worn drive belt, worn rollers, a faulty clutch, a badly jetted carburettor, water in the fuel etc. What make and model of bike is it? That might give us some clues as to where your problem might lie.
I'm pretty new to the scooter scene but it's a Piaggio Fly 125. 08 Thanks, how can I check rollers i'm not too sure what i'm looking for?
Okay thank you. If it is one of these 'This could be one of a lot of things. It could be a worn drive belt, worn rollers, a faulty clutch, a badly jetted carburettor, water in the fuel etc.' What do you think the max it would cost? I'm pretty skint at the minute and don't want to take it to a garage and not be able to pay haha.
I'm in chorley/preston area. North west. Yeah I was thinking about the Haynes manual, but i'm really not mechanically minded at all, I think buying the tools etc to mess about with the bike would be a hassle too along with the parts. If it went wrong i'd be gutted. Rather leave it to the people who know what they are playing with Thanks for your replies.
Got the bike at around 6.5k miles and I think it's on about 9k now. I've not changed belt in this time
Ah that would be sweet. I'm not with the bike for a few weeks currently, but yeah! Cheers bud. I'll take a look first and get hold of whatever I need
