Hi,
I looked for newer and older posts but couldn't find anything related to this topic. Am I looking in the wrong section? My BV 250 stalls suddenly while I'm riding and it acts as if the kill switch is off because nothing happen when I hold the brake and push the start button. Finally after diagnosing the entire bike, we found out that something is wrong with the ignition because when I wiggle the key everything works fine and when I wiggle it again, the scooter stalls.

I have the 300+ pages service manual but nothing shows how to remove or replace the ignition and what fairing it is exactly that needs to be removed to access the ignition. Can anyone put me in the right direction please?

Thanks

you need to remove panel with the glove box in it. Also need to loosen up the panel where the gas door is to get to some screws. Look at a parts manual to get an idea. www.af1racing.com as a parts manual on their site.
