...PIAGGIO
Damn their eyeballs! It's a 125cc moped, how complicated could they make it? I've got engine running problems which I'd normally be able to fix with a bit of fettling with idle speed, timing and mixture but oh no, not on a simple little 125. I have never seen such a mishmash of random tubes, return pipes, wires, sensors, pipes, breathers, air boxes and springs in my entire life. It's a 125 FFS, what could it need that my car engine doesn't?
The carb has one fuel feed in but another two odd pipes that go off to the engine and into the air box. Then there are three seperate wires that go in to unknown stuff, one of which has a long spike on the end of it that I stabbed my finger on. What is all this crap? It's only got to make a moped work.
Anyway I'm really annoyed with it as none of this stuff bears any resemblance with anything in the manual and basically means that I've got to put it al back together, still not working properly and take it to a shop to get it fixed. TO GET AN ENGINE THAT IS SMALLER THAN A WINE BOX THAT OUGHT TO HAVE A JUST SIMPLE CARB AND NOTHING MORE, fixed!!!
To get to the spark plug I had to drop the engine out the bike. How stupid is that setup? Well done Piaggio you stupid Italian idiots
