Will do thanks!! Could it also have been a possibility that the battery was weak and not have enough juice to power my blinkers at the time the blinkers went out???

So opened her up and turned on the scooter and magically the blinkers worked!!! Which led me to believe that it was a loose wire and perhaps by opening he scooter up I hit the wire to make it work!!

Thanks. I'll open her up after work. But even though my horn works could it still by loose or broken wire??

So these few weeks have been bad for my scooter and now it gets worse!! Seems like as soon as I repair one thing something else fails. While riding home from work today my turn signals and brake light failed. I am absolutely horrific when it comes to electric wiring of things!! Not sure why the stopped working one sec there were good then the next they failed!! One thing I know for sure is that I am not getting any voltage to the turn signal switch I checked it. I am hoping a wire just came loose but I am sure this isn't the case!!!!! Anyone have a similar problem?  Tank 2008 racer |

Update! I got a bottled sprayed and no luck, then I messed with the fuel air mix and It did nothing!! So today I am goin to take off the carb to check the pilot jet. I hope this is my problem!! But I cleaned my carb 2wks perhaps I missed a spot??? But if cleaning the carb fails could it be that my carb is bad? ?? |

Check that. More good news!! I now have the bike idling where it does not die!!! The only issue is the idle does not sound stable!! It idles at about 3500 when up start up the bike. idle goes up then it will stablize then seconds later it will go down then stablize then repeat. I left the bike on for about 5 min to see if it will stablize and it didn't. What could be causing this??? No matter what I do to the air fuel mixture it does not seem to get a stable idle!!
