Hey guys, i have an 08 benelli m50 scooter. Ive had problems with it not starting before. It wouldnt start unless the back tire was spinning. I read online to turn a screw that was marked "lead" up for it to get more gas or something to the engine.. I did that and it would start perfectly fine. I drove it like that for a week or so. Then when i went to start about 2 days ago it would not start at all. I charged the battery and made sure everything was tightend and sealed correctly. I put the battery back on and went to start it and still wouldnt start. It will turn over but the motor will not kick in. Anybody have any idea what could be wrong? Any questions about the bike feel free to ask, will try my best to answer. Thanks!

Check the gap on the spark plug or even get a new one to start but the gap is fine straight from the box and if you want to check the old one make sure its in the .6-.8 range make sure you airbox is connect right and make sure all your lines are connected to the carb

Mine does that too (starts right up when the back wheel is up)
But it will start otherwise, just need to give it gas
Does my bike have a "lead" screw too?
