Engine revving and wheel spin on idle.
My pcx 125 is on, the engine is revving up to about 10mph on the speedometer and making a lot of noise. Problem is, I am not twisting or touching the accelerator at all. It only started this morning on my commute home from work, and didn't on the journey in 4 hours before. Any ideas?

Re: Engine revving and wheel spin on idle.
Does the throttle have any play in it? generally speaking you should be able to twist the grip a little before you take up the tension on the throttle cable. If there is sufficient play i would recommend checking any vaccum pipes.
I'm not too sure though i'm just spitballing.

No play on the throttle. Feels like its stuck on low power.

Re: Engine revving and wheel spin on idle.
i'd suggest loosening off that cable as a starting point and see how it performs from there.  If it's only happened recently it could be a sticking choke but not too sure how they work on these bikes. I have yet to hear of cables shrinking! lol

Re: Engine revving and wheel spin on idle.
unhook the battery and let the ecu reset itself, then start checking for sticking cables.
