Sounds like a bad connection. I would check the battery and ground connections.

Finally got logged back on. Toughest part of this forum, or I'm doing something wrong. I contacted Piaggio, both of our bikes need the fuel pump. The biggest problem I am having now is, Piaggio dealers are dropping like flies. My have to travel 300 miles to get to one. Bummer.

My wife and I have had scooters since Dec 2003. Her first bike was a Metropolitan and mine a Ruckus. Little 50cc bikes. We upgraded to 150cc Vespa and Aprilia Mojito I really liked the looks of that Mojito. Today we both ride BV250. I like the power. It is nice to do some Interstate traveling and being able to keep up with traffic.

Did anyone do this? Do I need to look somewhere else on this forum?

Can anyone help me with a manual. I haven't had any luck finding one for the '09 BV250. Thanks

After riding for sometime, about 2 hours, the bike has to sit for at least 30 minutes before restarting. It will crank and even start, then die and will not restart. I planned to adjust the valves, not sure that will help. Looks like .10 mm for the intake and .15 mm for the exhaust should work. Has anyone else had this problem? My wife rides a similar '09 bv250 and hasn't had any problems.
