It was a bad regulator.  Being completely new to the wold of mopeds, I decided to take it to the local moped mechanic.  They took a battery reading. 12.8 with the moped off.....then when he tuned the moped on, it actually dropped to about 12.3.  He replaced the regulator and that was it.  I was kind of bummed to pay $65 for the part and the diagnostics when I could have just  bought a new regulator for $30 and popped it on myself. However, considering I would have had no clue if what I was doing was right, I guess the extra $$ was worth the piece of mind.

I bought a used 2008 Agility 50 (800 Miles or Km not sure) as an alternative to buying another car.  The battery died within the first few days of purchasing it.  The last owner assured me it was a fairly new battery but made good and bought me a new one.  Two weeks later that completely died.  I figured it as because I left the kill switch on a few times.  Last night while riding, I went to use the turn signal and i felt the power drop off and the turn signal did not engage.  I tried it again and the whole bike died.  The kickstart would not work.  My fiance met up with me to give me a jump start and had to give me three more jumps on our 4 mile journey home!

WHATS THE DEAL?!  Is this a problem with the stator not keeping the battery charged?  I've never owed a moped before o I have no clue what I'm doing. 

Please Help!
