    AN IN-TANK FUEL LINE BETWEEN THE FUEL PUMP AND FILTER IS MISSING HOSE CLAMPS CAUSING FUEL PRESSURE LOSS AND ERRATIC ENGINE PERFORMANCE. STALLING AND SPUTTERING DURING MANEUVERS IN TRAFFIC CAN BE BEING VERY DANGEROUS ON A MOTORCYCLE OR ANY TWO WHEEL VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM EFFECTS 2007 THROUGH 2008 APRILIA SCARABEO 500IE AND EARLIER YEAR MODELS. THUS FAR SOME (NOT MINE) DEALERS HAVE CORRECTED THIS UNDER WARRANTY ON A BY COMPLAINT BASES. MOST OF THESE FAILURES HAVE OCCURRED IN THE FIRST 1000 MILES. AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW. I FEEL THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM". *TR
