Hi Everyone

I have a Piaggio xevo 125 and have stripped the motor to find a valve broke and went through the piston. The parts are rather expensive and was looking at just replacing the whole motor . Unfortunately I cant get a motor anywhere but can get a typhoon motor. Does anyone know if they will be compatible? or perhaps where I can get a xevo motor?

Hi

Thank you for the advice. I never thought of that. How are the mounts on the motors? IE are they all the same or will they vary.

What on earth makes you think a 2 stroke with a smaller engine (half the size) would be more reliable than a 4 stroke?

Someone needs to stop smoking the crack pipe...

Dude (ette?) they're telling you to bin your broken bike and to instead buy another one with a completely different engine and to add modifications.
Yeah - not what you asked lol!

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 7 years, 4 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
