I just picked up this used 2009 Piaggio BV 250 with 18k miles. Did a full service on it and have owned it less than a month.

Going over the Manhattan bridge today at full acceleration it loses acceleration. The bike still had electrical power but would start jerking like it was randomly getting fuel-not consistent.

Any ideas?

Could be. I haven't taken a look yet. It did make it to my destination. Just concerning.
