Burning Smell
« on: September 05, 2008, 03:51:23 PM »
I have a new GV and have noticed more and more a very acrid, burning smell predominately from the right side.  There is less than 75 miles on my scooter and am afraid something is going wrong.  Is this normal?

I had 350 miles on mine and never had a burning smell.  Better check it with the dealer before you get in real trouble out in the boonies some day.

I talked to the dealer and he said that the smell is common in new engines and not to worry.  I have noticed is has abated some, I'll have them check real close during the first service.
