Re: Any thoughts on the Piaggio Typhoon 50

thanks, bak. I figured so, being Vespa product.
It's been hard to find a good review on it, though.

Any thoughts on the Piaggio Typhoon 50

Whats up fellas? I am looking at this bike around my way which was very seldom used and a good price.
Trying to find out if anyone here owns or has previously owned one, and what you think about them.

Thanks

Re: spree runs fast on kickstand by itself: normal? carb?

Thanks for the help y'all. Got that mug running good after my third carb cleaning, new spark plug and fresh oil change. To other hard-headed noobs... Cleaning the carb very well is the key, I sprayed the pants off that bish and took my time the last go-around. I guess I was too excited to ride when ...

I have it on the kickstand running and the wheel starts to run fast by itself and stays at high speeds until I twist the throttle, then it wants to turn off. I...
