I bought my 125 5 years ago from new - I am now on my 6th headlamp bulb (all fitted by Vespa dealer not me) They last about 3 months before the low beam goes (the high beam remains fine) It gets incredibly hot it even melted a plastic bag I made the mistake of putting on the front carrier. Is this a record? Is it just me?

A dodgy front shock absorber or loose steering bearings will blow bulbs. Also a failing voltage regulator or some bad wiring. The wiring to the rear light and indicators could be rotting or rusting against the frame.
