New PX125

[pdd1]

Hi all. Just joined so hello to everyone. I purchased a new PX125 limited edition in Nov 2011 which was not without problems. After the first night being parked in my garage I noticed a oil patch on the floor, this started 6 visits back to the dealer who eventually fixed the problem by replacing the carb and gaskets. I am still trying to seek compensation from Piaggio. Its coming up for its first service & I am thinking of changing the exhaust to a Sito as I am told the engine will run better, has anyone any thoughts ?

My first thought is 'good luck with the compensation, I chased them for a year over crap paint before I gave up' about 12 years ago.

My second thought is the scooter shop must be pretty crap if they didn't spot that on any of the first five visits.... they (and their PDI system) are more likely to be at fault for the leak, I'd threaten them with a small claims court job but TBH I'd not fancy your chances.

As for the Sito, I'd run THIS instead. I've run Sito's on my P2 for many years, changed to this at the back of last year and couldn't believe the difference to the performance. Don't forget it will invalidate any warranty you have though.

Thanks for the update, I am told I should get compensation in March (keep you posted) regarding exhaust sounds like Sito is a good choice
