Scooter cutting out By cyborg (Read 303 times)

Hi, my name is Rachel and I'm new here, I've had my Direct Bikes Cruiser 125cc for three years now and suddenly it has started to cut out on me - I can feel it staring to "die" ie when I'm turning the throttle I feel it then it suddenly cuts out..... I have to wait a few minutes then I can start it again and then its fine ! Can any of you advise, does this sound like something I can have a look at myself or would it need to go to a garage?  

Many thanks in advance

Run it till it dies ,,,then quickly open the fuel tank cap,,,if you hear air rush into the tank you have a venting issue,,,drill a very small hole in the cap ,,get back to us and tell us if that helped
