Well Frenchie is home for the weekend so we can ride, but still not repaired.We are waiting for parts. Joe at Varsity Cycle said they need to replace the clutch drum and also the motor mount. And now the dash has to be replaced as one of the repairmen sent a screw almost thru it. So Frenchie has a little bump on his face. Not too noticeable, but he is getting a new dash plate. It's on order too!
Evidently there is a message board on the Piaggio dealer's site where they can communicate between Piaggio and other dealers. There is something on the message boards regarding the chirping sounds and the vibration. We thought it was only on the new yellow and green Vespas, but they took a motor mount off of a blue one and tried it and it had the same problems.
A friend of mine was joking and said the chirping sounds were just that Frenchie was happy to be taken out. We are sure happy to take him out this weekend. The weather is supposed to be superb, sunny and between 62 and 79. Can't wait for tomorrow!
