so I bought the scooter, and took it home, the previous owner said it had been at someones house for repair, they never repaired it and they got a DUI and were in jail, his wife got tired of waiting and bought a Bergman.
It came with a new CDI, as that is what the diagnosis was, well I put in the new CDI and the battery was dead, good thing for me, as upon further inspection, the fuel line to the carb was off and hanging, the spark plug was out of the hole and hanging by the coil wire right close to the fuel line, so I put the spark plug in, hooked up the fuel line, swapped the filter, replaced fuel lines as needed, added fuel to the tank, adjusted the valves, both were way tight, and I sure that this was the biggest problem, then found the bowl drain open, I put in a new battery, well it still wouldn't start, so I hooked up a spare plug to the plug wire and grounded it out, it would give a weak spark about every fifth time, so I put on a new coil and it started right up. It would idle fine but not run at higher rpm's, it would bog and one could it hear it seemingly backfire in the exhaust pipe, I tried to adjust the mixture and it made no difference from about a half a turn thru about 5 turns, so I swapped the carb for a new one. It fired right up and runs great now. Just waiting on a brake lever now for the front brake, as it was broken.
Then it will be for sale as well. It cleaned up real nice.
I will be adding some reflective custom graphics to it as well. I will likely go with a tribal along the body to cover up some screw holes where an antenna had been mounted.
