Hey all

I've got a 06 People 50 2t that I'm having some electrical issues with. I'll describe the problems and if you pros could please diagnose it, it would be great!

Electric start doesnt work, so I kick start it everytime.

If I'm at a stoplight with the indicators on, the indicator will tick quicker and quicker until it stops all together. If I give it a little gas, the indicator goes back to its normal ticking speed.

I honestly dont know much about CDI's, so if anyone could tell me if my problems seem like a drained battery or CDI problem, that would be super helpful.

Thanks!

Hey Everyone. Long time scooterer, first time kymcoer here. Coming from Chicago.

Just picked up an 03 silver people 50cc 2t from a local dealership with only 600km on it. Its a beautiful scoot with only one owner, older guy who barely ever used it. Must have been stored indoors because everything looks brand spankin new.

The mechanic at the shop derestricted it for me, and I'm a short skinny guy, so I'm clocking 50+ and have already been pulled over in less then a week 

Quick question. When dealerships get a used scooter, do they go through and check oil and sparkplug or carburetor?  Or do they just make sure it starts and then send it out the door?

I know I should have asked that stuff while I was there, but I was too giddy that I found such a pristine scoot for so cheap.

She seems to be running well, idle seems pretty low, sometimes cuts out even when warm, so I'm going to adjust that. Can be finicky in the morning starting up (which i expected with a 50cc 2t) but I used the trick of covering the air intake (which I learned from here ) and she starts right up. I pretty much always use the kickstart, electric start never seems to do the trick.

Anything else I should be wary about with a scooter this old?

Thanks everyone! Loving my kymco. What a fast, smooth ride. These big tires are amazing!
