1983 80cc Honda Scooter troubles!?
I have 1983 80cc Honda Scooter. It runs great actually, when its on the stand. Revs right up. Kicks over first start. However, when I hop on to go for a ride down the street, it gets up to only about 10 Km/h or so and then starts sputtering and dying, until I stop with the throttle, and then it just idles. Maybe something wrong with the belt, pulleys, weights? Help me please!

Sounds like something is out of adjustment in the carb. Try to play with the adjustment settings until you can actually ride it.
When the scooter is off the ground there is no load on the motor thus less fuel is needed to get it to spin. When on the ground however its under load and thus more fuel is needed. Thats what i think anyways.
For future reference, always give year, make, engine size and model # when asking questions.
2 and 4 stroke engines can have similar problems, requiring different repair procedures.
May need a top end rebuild (cylinder, piston & rings).
2 stroke engines require rebuilds quite often.
Clogged muffler.
