set the mixture screw 2.5 turns out from being all the way in,the mixture screw is on the back of the carb near where the air filter rubber meets the carb on the right hand side.the tickover screw is just to the right of it in the middle of the carb screw it in until the rear wheel just starts to turn a fraction now and again,this is how piaggio tell you to do it as i have been on a piaggio course before.
