Hey,
I bought this Ravi piaggio [2013] about 2 months ago, It cost me around 65k. The previous owner I don't think really kept the bike with care. When I brought it home, it ran okay for 2-3 days until the fuel started leaking from the fuel on and off thingy, it took me a little while to solve it but it was just the tank not clean and the filter was broken. After cleaning the whole tank and oil change and tuning the ride was awesome.
Its been almost one and half month now, and I just got across another issue.
As I've highlighted with red marker, my bike air pipe been getting flaming hot and bursting out.
the original one burst out so I tried to get a new one, due to its spare part issue I didn't find one. So, I tried the pipe of Honda CG125 and it didn't work out so well and burst out the second day. A mechanic told me to get a pipe from a car workshop (pipe which they use in cars) and so I did. it worked well for some days but again it kept getting hotter and hotter and finally burst out after a few days. I've been using car pipes now but my problem isn't solved. I always need to keep a spare pipe if the working one gives up.
I've visited RP mechanic's and Honda mechanic but they just say its normal.
And Yea, the pipes works well if I shift normally and don't go 70KM+ but as soon as I touch 90.. Boom.
Please Somebody Help me on this.
Beside the pipe issue the bike is just awesome, it has just an amazing ride. plus you get alot of looks
