Hi,
I'm just browsing this forum and thought I will register, introduce myself and ask few questions.
My name is Raf and I just bought Vespa ET4 from year 2000. It's alright but needs some work done which I don't mind as I like and I'm not afraid to take things apart and fix them. I've just passed my CBT today nad took scooter for a spin and couple of things that needs to be sorted soon I suspect.
1. There is some sort of screeching noise coming from the rear wheel area. You start to hear it when it gets to about 10 mph and over. It's fairly loud (especially when riding in the tunnel). It seems louder when I'm slowing down (say I go up to 30 and stop throttling and bike slows down and the noise is 'more noisy'(?) I've checked the wheel and doesn't seem to have any play (just a bit like 1mm or so) and not sure what to do next there.
2. When idling the bike is cutting out after a while or going high with revs? I thought it's because it's bit cold recently but after 15 min ride it's still the same. When on stand the wheel spins sometimes quite fast, when on ground and stopping sometimes feels like I'm accelerating and moment later it cuts out.
I know it's more for tech part of the form but here is my and my bike and these issues. Otherwise it's quote fun to ride it!
I appreciate any help.
Cheers!
