SOoooo, I had some time yesterday to try and trouble shoot the inconsistent idling.

This is what I found...

The bike has a very rough/harsh pull away and the whole bike shakes and rattles, but only for a very short distance, and hardly anything if I accelerate hard. I know this is my clutch, I am waiting on a replacement. But... because of this, the throttle cable came loose at the fix point on the carburetor and the air intake was half off the carburetor as well. I went a head and and re-attached the throttle cable (going to order a new today) and re-secured the air intake with a better hose clamp. This has fixed the idling

I also discovered that the radiator fan fuse slot was empty, inserted a 10amp fuse. The fan is now working

I will be going over the bike from front to back with a magnifying glass this week, and hopefully I can detect and fix anything that comes up.

Thank you, casey for your help and input. Much appreciated!!

I think I will start a new thread, as I am still trying to find fairings and body panels for my scoot, would love to have her looking her best.

Thanks
Clinton
