Hello everyone,
I have a pair of S150 Vespas, and one is giving me a bit of trouble. We were slated to go on a group ride yesterday morning, and one of the bikes died about a half mile from home... we had to push it back. After some digging here on Modern Vespa, I checked my spark plug wire, and it had worked itself loose. The problem is, I can't get it to stay seated. It immediately works itself off as soon as the bike starts moving. Do y'all have any suggestions/tips for me? My Dad says that I probably need to simply replace the wire, that they get hard with age on motorcycles, and won't stay clamped on to the spark plug. This particular Vespa is just over 2 years old, and has clocked about 8,000 miles. Thanks everyone in advance for your help! -Louie
