Vespa GTS250 Alert?

2strokeBuzz.Com published this report from the UK Scooter Scene Forum.

According to the post, some GTS250 riders are reporting the gasket degrades over time and can fail, releasing excessive heat that can damage the rear brake hydraulic pipe, throttle cable, or gas line, causing a loss of brakes, locked-up throttle, or even the risk of a gas fire or explosion.

I hope the problem does not extend to the GT200s, since the GTS250 still isn’t available here.
