PIAGGIO IS RECALLING 1,260 MY 2008-2009 APRILIA SCARABEO 200 MOTORCYCLES. THE FLOAT LEVEL IN THE FLOAT BOWL OF THE CARBURETOR WAS NOT SET CORRECTLY IN PRODUCTION, DIRT AND THE VARNISH RESIDUE OF DRIED GASOLINE NOT ALLOWING THE FLOAT NEEDLE TO SEAT CORRECTLY, AND A BLOCKAGE OF THE EVAPORATIVE EMISSION HOSES THAT DID NOT ALLOW THE FLOAT BOWL TO VENT CORRECTLY. THE CARBURETOR WAS NOT ABLE TO MAINTAIN CORRECT OR CONSTANT PRESSURE IN THE FLOAT BOWL. INCONSISTENT PRESSURE IN THE FLOAT BOWL WOULD EITHER PUSH TOO MUCH OR NOT ENOUGH FUEL TO AND THROUGH THE JETS FOR ANY ONE THROTTLE POSITION WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW THE CARBURETOR TO CORRECTLY METER FUEL TO THE ENGINE. Remedy: DEALERS WILL RE-CONNECT THE HOSES TO ELIMINATE THE CONNECTION OF THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM TO THE CARBURETOR. THIS REMEDY IS FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING FEBRUARY 2009.

On certain scooters, should the fuel tank be overfilled, or the motorcycle be tipped-over on it's side, raw fuel may be allowed to enter the hoses of the evaporative emissions system. This could cause a litany of drivability concerns including: difficulty starting, random stalling, low power, reduced top speed, float bowl overflowing, etc. Engine stalling would result in lost propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the rider's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will re-route emission system hoses and replace the "Hose Routing Diagram" sticker.
