      @@BikeMatters yes it did, lovely bike. Just riding it around the country roads at the moment to run in the engine, dealer told me I should stick to under 40mph for the first 100miles as the engine will last a lot longer if you don’t thrape it straight away. He also warned me about the dangers of using cheap petrol in it from smaller independent petrol stations.. as the can bugger up the engine. Do you know anything about this?

    Hi I just bought a lexmoto diablo 50cc brand new out of the dealership. I haven't even taken for it a ride yet as waiting for my insurance, I woke up this morning and wanted to see if started okay as my insurance will start on Friday and wanted to take it out for a ride, but it won't start, it has a full tank of petrol. it started okay in the shop and when I got it home it started again with no problems. my question is if you know, can I ask for a full refund as I have done my research today to find a solution to my problem and have seen a lot of similar problems with the diablo with starting. if you possibly know if I can return the bike get a full refund, I'd really appreciate any help or suggestions 👍

      Hi, Are you holding the brake and then pushing the electric start button? Make sure to follow normal start up procedure first.
      If still no good, I would talk to your dealer where you purchased the scooter from in the first instance and see how this could be resolved.

      As we have the bikes only for a short amount of time, I would always recommend seeing some thoughts on owner groups and forums to see what people say after a few months.
      Lexmoto has quite the dealership network across the UK so chances are you probably have a local Lexmoto dealer which is usually quite handy.

    Nice review, but I'm so tired of Chinese products that are "European styled". Can those people not develop their own style without ripping off foreign ideas? The whole culture seems based on ripping off foreign competition, then doing it less well with products that don't last. LexMoto can come back when it has a 10 year track record of quality without any rip offs of Western ideas.

      This was due to working with Italjet initially with the Italian styling.
      Lexmoto are actually a UK company, they work with factories in China and bring over bikes that they believe in. The quality of Chinese bikes are improving all the time, a lot of big brands are having bikes produced in China nowadays.
