How do you know your battery is good?  Was it tested under load?  If not, just about any autoparts store will test it for free.

I have not had it tested under load but the starter runs and the battery tender I have shows it is good.

People 50 / Problems with 09 People 50 2T
« on: January 27, 2017, 12:11:36 AM »
So I bought a one owner people 2T back in July and its now January. It has 14,000 Kilometers (is that a lot?). Ive been having a few issues with it. To start a few weeks after I bought it I went away for a week and when I came back it took many tries of a few minutes using the electric starter before it started, it wasn't the battery or spark plug I checked both. The reason I didn't use the kick start is because of my second issue. The kick starter is just limp on my scooter and hangs there, not sure what to do. I went to start my scooter almost 2 months ago after it had been ran a week before and the battery was good and you could hear the electric starter but it wouldn't fire. This past weekend I had the same issues with it and it wouldn't start, I haven't run it in two months because of this, the electrical was good, the spark plug was dry, you could hear the electric starter it just wouldn't fire. It was 60 degrees too, does temperature matter? I had put fresh gas so that wasn't the issue. I have gotten this scooter up to 53mph according to its speedometer which 4mph fast from when I tested it. When I have rode it most of the time its fast to 35mph and then still accelerates well. But sometimes it just completely stops at 30mph and wont go over. My scooter has a upgraded exhaust from what I can see its a Hand X made and what looks to be a K&N air filter. I was given a K&N air filter recharger kit as well from the previous owner. Just trying to get to the bottom of this and get it running again, any help is appreciated.
