    Major problem w/ gas in oil in the 500cc engine. Lots of comments dating back several years from owners. Aprilia seems to ignore this in hopes it will go away or those responsible hope to retire soon. Bought my 2006 Scarabeo used from an individual in Bedford, In. Called on the fuel line recall and was told the work had been done. Checked w/ closest dealer in Evansville, In (BIG 4) and they confirmed(?) that all recall work had been performed on my scooter. So why do myself and others have to change very expensive oil (5/40 Mobil 1 plus $12 filter)
    every 1000 miles or less just to maintain? Joe Rains 618 936 2290 12342 Pleasant View Rd. Sumner, Il 62466
