#2012 PIAGGIO TYPHOON 125 FREE#

Despite keeping the standard lead acid batteries trickle charged the one in the Typhoon 125 shorted out. Only issue over the winter is we had an extended cold streak and the unheated storage unit down the street turned into meat locker for an extended amount of time. Took the SportCity 125 and Typhoon 125 out of winter storage and they seemed to have survived winter untouched. It has been a while since I updated this thread. During May-Aug I was spending about $20 per month on fuel and now all of a sudden I am spending $400 average on fuel if the weather does not break.ДЄs it looks right now we are quickly heading for another deluge!

For some stuff I need the cars but for 80% of what I do any bike will do and the more economical the bike the more $$ in my pocket. It cost over $100 just to keep the cars going. Since getting back I have filled up both my cars and already burned through most of that gas. I also hope we get more breaks in the weather this fall and winter and I can ride as much as possible.

Not sure if its going to be drama free or not. Hopefully our break in the weather holds so I can run the Agility 125 tonight. Even the SportCity 125 ran without drama out of the gate and its the picky one. It seems the jetting may in fact be set up for cooler riding and not warmer riding. I am happy to report both scooters fired up on first crank and despite the ambient temperature being in the mid 50's they actually ran really good out of the gate with little warm up time. Some bikes can sit a long time and fire right up but others its like waking the dead. I am using a bit of TCW3 oil and a high quality stabilizer so I am not concerned about gumming up the carbs just drying out and being a pain to start.

My primary concern was the carbs running dry and being a PITA to start. Finely got a break this afternoon and was able to run them up. First I took a 3 week vacation to Europe then came home to some serious weather that grounded even the most seasoned riders. It had been a month since either one had been ran. Judging by your review of all your scooters, I think its safe to assume that the engine types I described fit your scooter's profiles.ДЇinely was able to pull out the Typhoon 125 and SportCity 125 for a quick run. Long stroke motors typically make their power down low but since this motor is really small to begin with, I think it still spins as high as your Fly 150 does. The Agility has a 52.4 mm bore with a 57.8 mm stroke. These types of engines give you a balance of mid range torque and relatively good power in the upper RPM range but don't spin as high as short stroke motor would and not as exciting to ride. Your Fly 150 on the other hand has a bore of 2.28 inches and a stroke of 2.3 inch which would make it a square engine. You really have to keep short stroke motors up in the high RPM range to get any power out of them. The short stroke would mean that the engine spins really high and the Horsepower is made really high up in the RPM range although Midrange torque on these types of motors are usually really low. If the specs are to be trusted, the Piaggio website claims that the Typhoon has a 2.2 inch bore with 1.1 inch stroke. I think the reason for the high strung nature of your Typhoon that you mention is due to it's really short stroke.
