I am sure that you all must be fed up with this one, but as a new owner (30 hours) I am concerned that my boatian 50 qt7 is very difficult to start from cold. I have check the stand and I am careful not to flood it. I have also resorted to kick starting (which has worked!). When it gets going, it is brilliant. Any advice gratefully received.

That's probably you're best bet as you shouldn't be having any problems with a brand new scooter.

I know this may sound simple, but as you use the electric starter are you opening the throttle a little?
