Frequently asked questions about cars and motorcycles
In this video we see how to start a scooter that doesn't want to start: it is something that can happen normally if the scooter has been stationary for too long. We will have to hold down the yellow start button for at least thirty seconds and the scooter will start. However, if we still have problems, we need to go to the side of the air filter, cover it completely with our hand as if we were suffocating it and turn the key to the "ON" position: with our right hand we pull the brake lever and press the start button. It will make a noise as if the engine is choking, but eventually it will start. Remember that this is not something that can be done daily, but only after the scooter has been stationary for a long period.
