LOL.   I purchased a DT300i, and it had fuel that was several years old in it... it still fired up and runs like a banshee.  That said, I still drained it in put in fresh fuel.

What does your "lack of power" feel like?  Bogging?  Just won't hit the speeds you are expecting? How many miles on the scooter, and has the routine service been performed?

How many miles, what year, any flashy symbols on instruments, did it run right when parked, is it yours? Did you park it for that time?
