Maybe the scoot is just a juice drinker but I filled the tank up yesterday, have done around 15-20 miles and its half emtpy (or half full) Rolling Eyes
Is this normal for a 100cc or do I possibly have a small leak?

Can you smell fuel when its been standing a while? Check the engine oil, does it smell of petrol (it shouldn't).

What shape is the fuel tank? If its smaller at the top then the fuel level would appear to go down pretty quick.

PS Finglonga, are you a Ham by any chance?

I do have a leak, but not petrol. Im sure its the oil (like black watery stuff) Took a look under the bike and there is alot of oil everywhere. I will try to grab a pic later to show.
