What owners report
AN IN-TANK FUEL LINE BETWEEN THE FUEL PUMP AND FILTER IS MISSING HOSE CLAMPS AND IMPROPER FUEL LINE FOR USA FUELS CAUSING FUEL PRESSURE LOSE AND ERRATIC ENGINE PERFORMANCE. STALLING AND SPUTTERING DURING MANEUVERS IN TRAFFIC CAN BE BEING VERY DANGEROUS ON A MOTORCYCLE OR ANY TWO WHEEL VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM EFFECTS 2007 TO 2008 APRILIA SCARABEO 500IE MODEL. *TR

LOSS OF FUEL PRESSURE CAUSING STALLING. *TR
I, ALONG WITH OTHERS, OWN A 2007 APRILIA SCARABEO 500IE. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THIS SCOOTER THE ENGINE BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND STALL CREATING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN CORRECTED BUT IT SHOULD BE KNOWN THAT THIS PROBLEM IS SERIOUS AND APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM ON EVERY SINGLE SCOOTER PRODUCED. IT IS A SIMPLE FIX BUT IT IS A GRASSROOTS KNOWN FACT AND MOVEMENT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR
THE APRILIA SCARABEO HAS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE SUBMERSIBLE FUEL LINE. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE HOSE IS HELD ON BY FRICTION INSTEAD OF CLAMPS WHICH OVER TIME CAUSES PRESSURE LEAKS WHICH LEADS TO STALLING IN TRAFFIC. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN WELL KNOWN SINCE 2006 AT LEAST. IT IS A RELATIVELY SIMPLE FIX THAT ONLY REQUIRES THREE INCHES OF HOSE AND TWO SCREW CLAMPS, OH, AND A QUALIFIED MECH TO DO THE WORK. I THINK APRILIA SHOULD DO A RECALL SO WE USERS CAN HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED BEFORE WE GET HURT OR KILLED. *TR
