Was hoping you all wouldn't say that.. was hoping it was something simple like the fuel filter. I took the seat off and you can smell gas... Rode it home tonight and it was hard... Every time I stopped, it stalled... Then tried to start.. nothing untill I twisted the throttle and it started.. once started it ran.. just stalled every time I stopped...
It has 2391 on it.. Don't think they were ever adjusted.. I remember Bashan saying that adjusting the Valves on the Fashion didn't make a difference....
Bashan HELLLLLPPPP Are there any videos or anything showing how to do this...

Been riding good.. Some hesitation lately..Well today started right up this morning.. Let it warm up like usual. I get on to ride and it stalls. Try to start it back up and gave me a hard time starting.. Finally get it going.. figure maybe low on gas. Get to the gas station, fill it up.. Same thing when try to start again.. ruuuu ruuuuu ruuuu . nothing. Try to start twist throttle and it starts. Drive a bit.. get to a point where I have to stop.. and its stalls.. and same thing over again.. Could it be the fuel pump?? Or fuel filter.. the smell of gas this morning was there. Any suggestions.

Can't be any worse then the 2008.. We have NO way of changing the stations.. You have to set it to one station then listen to that all the way... And it takes up the trunk space can't even fit a helmet in there.

Don't get me wrong... I love mine.. Just want to make sure its running right. I bought it used, so you never know what you get. I could see it was dropped once when I got it.. But the owner apparently was a second owner and claims it wasnt them.. but I think they were full of it.. the bike runs great.. Havent even opened it up yet.. Im just concerned with some things like the feeling of it missing while im riding.. Just did an oil change and gear change... Next is to change out the spark plug....
Im trying to do the adjustment that Alley told me, but I cant get to the screw on the carb.. The dam air filter is in the way... I may eventually remove the air filter and put on the one like Bashan has... I did that with my old 150cc I used to have... We'll see.. Right now just want it run good so I can make some trips with it.. Was supposed to go to Tampa on it, but decided not to chance it..

Thanks for all the help guys.... Yeah the smell is definitely coming from that area.. its right above the muffler...
I think I helped the sway some... When I ride I tend to ride with my legs out.. More so my left leg.. So kinda makes me unbalanced.. So that was part of it.. I brought my legs in close and seems to have taken away most of that sway feeling...
Tomorrow Im working all day on the scoot... Oil Change, Gear change and valve stem change..... Fun, Fun, Fun.... But gotta say I love this scooter.. haven't even gone WOT yet and it cruises at 55 no problems..

Its the first time I smelled it.. It smelt like burnt rubber.. I hope this dam bike is not going already.. Hopefully changing the oil and gear oil will help.. have some synthetic oil. Also gonna change out the spark plug..
As far as the sway.. im gonna check the tires.. Might just bring it to a scooter shop so they can check everything out... This is why I hate buying used.. never know what you get...

And the SAGA continues... So its still sputtering in the morning.. but I might have to make some more adjustments... Today well stupid me decided its only cloudy I will ride the scooter to work.. Well it rained all day.. And as I left for work was a mess as it was with this thing.. So drove it home... And the front SWAYS like 2in to the left.. 2in to the right.. and I am afraid its going down.. And if it does.. well I am on busy 55 mile an hour roads where I live and work and if I go down.. im getting hit and so is the scooter... Is there any way to stop this sway or what could be causing it?? Its not a rumble.. its a sway...and with this little tired holding up about 600 lbs. (300 bike, 300 me) its crazy.. But I made it home.. white knuckles and all.. How do these motorcycle guys do it and drive 80-90 miles and hour. How are they not unsure.. I really need to turn this thing into a trike.. then wouldn't care... Lastly.. today after I got home.. There was a burning smell.. wondering if it was the muffler from the rain.. or would that be something else?  Im doing an oil change and gear change this week. cause crazy me is going on a 130 mile each way trip to Tampa.. MAYBE... |

Why is it that there is NO information anywhere on how to repair Tail lights on a Moto Fashion or Honda Helix??
All of my tail lights are out. Head lights, dash all work.. Can't find anywhere why the tail lights would be out or what to do to fix it or why its out.. Trying not regretting buying this thing..

Has to be a wire somewhere.. cause its my whole back tail lights.. The brake lights apparently work per the guy who was nice enough to stop me and tell me.. I'll have to look for the brown wire. Wish there were illustrations on this scooter...
