So today I went and got a tach. Could have been a 5 minute install but I insisted on the clean install where I could see it. My local M/C shop had this on in stock for $34. I think part of my problem was that at warm up... it was idling at about 1250 RPMs. Thanks again for the info.

Ok so here is my first question for the experts. I have a 2013 BMS Chelsea 150. I have had it 3 weeks and it has 200 miles on it.
When I start it cold, it starts immediately. Sounds like it goes to proper higher idle for warm up. Runs smooth. After about 30 seconds or so the enricher drops out and this idle drops... but its not warmed up enough. It rough idles and will eventually die unless I play with the throttle to keep it going. kinda bogs too. After about 2 minutes ... when its warm, it idles great and stays that way.
Is my idle set too low? How can you tell your idle is right? The info card says about 1700 rpm is that right? Will it improve with more mileage? Thanks

Retrobrian, THAT is a BEAUTIFUL scooter! How about giving us more info on it? And, WELCOME to the site! Leo in Texas Thanks for the compliment. I love using the forums. Helps me with whatever I ride/drive. Harley Gararge...Jeep Forum...etc I bought this scoot 3 weeks ago. Always wanted one. Just different. I ride it back and forth to work and just to relax. It's a 2013 BMS Chelsea 150. Puma has it out at a Valentine. I got it out the door (all Fees) from a small dealer here in San Diego for under $2k. I took the trunk off. I think it looks better this way. Im a good size guy (about 260lbs) and it pulls great. The more break in time the better I hope.
