Haha no. But does anyone else have problems with theirs shutting off when they're low on (not out of) gas? Mine's been doing that recently... hmmm.

Check the fuel line routing,,, you may be too high in a spot and when the fuel level is low the pressure may not be enough to push through

Thank you! I'll tell my mechanic. Does anybody know how I can get my hands on a maintenance manual?

Congrats on purchasing the Rowdy! Mine has been nothing but a pleasure to own.....Got it out of storage this week. Been sitting since early November, checked fluids, turned key, hit the starter button and it turned about 5 times before starting. What a great machine! The only item I need to improve is the headlight. Will have to look around and see what is available as this one just plain isn't bright enough....
Enjoy your ride!

"Will have to look around and see what is available as this one just plain isn't bright enough" the one in my stella was marginal,,,then when the low beam filament blew out i changed it to an H4,,,what a difference,,,,i was worried about the wattage (heat) from (35/35w to 50/65w) but i have not had any problems with the reflector getting damaged,,

Was it an exact swap or did you need to change wiring?

You have to remove the bulb and check the mounting base ,, I got lucky and it was the same as an h4

Here is one way: scooterdoc.proboards.com/thread/11566/easy-picture-posting?page=1&scrollTo=103740Or you can use any HOST to post pics, Tinypic, Photobucket etc.. As far as shutting off when low on gas, have the FUEL LINE checked from the tank to the CARB. IF the TANK IS HIGHER than the carb it is usually a Gravity Fed system which means it has a Vacuum Operated PETCOCK and NOT a Vacuum Operated FUEL PUMP. The HOSE from the TANK to the CARB MUST NOT have any ups and downs it should be as straight of a shot as possible to the carb. Fluids do not flow uphill very well without enough pressure on the high side. Alleyoop |
