Hi, thanks for reading. Uploaded a video.



I have a VESPA VXL 150, thay is only 2 years old and less than 5000km.



I started it yesterday after two months, but i started having a problem... when i try to accelerate the motorcyle



I changed the spark plug but it didnt seem to be the problem... bike seems ok when its regulating.... any toughts??

That sounds like petrol not getting through try opening throttle very slowly to see if it picks up.if not take petrol pipe of carb and turn petrol on to see if there is flow. If petrol getting to carb I think float could be stuck and not letting petrol in.give it a few taps while it is ticking over might free it.

Could be a blocked jet as it's been stood.
