I'm obviously new to this forum, and I've got two questions:
1) How would I make my px150 (2005) run faster? It's surprisingly sluggish, kind of feels like it drags, 1st and 2nd gears huff and puff with quite an attitude problem when I'm not even trying to gun them, AND it stalls out a lot.
In the bikes defense, this is my first manual transmission, I'm not very familiar with the clutch, I'm coming from riding an LXV (traded for a brand new 2005 px150), and it's freezing cold here in New York.
2) The bike hasn't started in a couple weeks. Granted, I hadn't attempted to start it for two weeks and left it sitting on the freezing cold sidewalk of Brooklyn, covered with a tarp. But now when I try to start it up and let it run for a few minutes, I get nothing. I feel the engine trying to turn, but it just can't do it.
So before I have it towed down to Vespa's garage, is there anything you guys could suggest I try?
thanks
