I've had fuels stolen from my old Vespa parked in the front yard. Quite easy to get at the fuel tap/hose, just under the bodywork on the right hand side at the back. Have a quick check that the fuel hose is attached.


Otherwise - does it have problems starting or starts fine? If it does have issues, it may be that the fuel tap is dud and not shutting off the fuel flow. Cheap part, easy to fit.

Honda Riders in Peckham is the one my local car mechanic directed me to when I first got my bike. When it was time for a service, I got 3 quotes and HR was the cheapest (?40ish compared with ?70ish at a place in Croydon and ?120 at an official dealer - all for the same job!).


In the end, I went for the even cheaper option of spending ?16 on a Haynes manual and doing it myself.

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
