Hey there,

I am looking for any advice or thoughts you might have with something that may or may not be a problem with my bike.

It's a 2001, 125cc Vespa ET4.

There is a rattling sound from what seems to be the engine area. It is rattly when there is no gas on the throttle but at full speed there is no rattle.

Also, it takes a small twist to happen before the bikes moves off. Is this a problem with the clutch? Are the two problems related?

Finally are they easy to fix? If not easy, Cheap?

Thanks

Probably best to take the transmission cover off to have a look. For this you'll need a clutch holding tool or you can make your own.
