PIAGGIO BV500 THROTTLE CABLE FREEZES WHEN TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 30 DEGREES. THE CABLE MAY GET STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION(FULL OR PARTIAL SPEED) WHILE MOVING SHORTLY AFTER MOVING THE BIKE. I HAVE WAITED 15-20 MINUTES FOR THE CABLE TO DEFROST AS IT IS ABOVE THE RADIATOR, AND DRIVEN A FEW BLOCKS AND THE CABLE REFROZE AS THE WIND COOLED OFF THE CABLE. VERY DANGEROUS! BE CAREFUL OUT THERE. *TR

THIS IS FOR A 2007 PIAGGIO BV500 SCOOTER. THE SCOOTER HAS A TENDENCY TO STALL AT IDLE OR LOW SPEEDS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP. IT IS CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. I HAD A VERY CLOSE CALL WHERE THE SCOOTER STALLED WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE ENTERING THE ROAD. *JB
