Scooter that is drinking petrol!?

Question:
My 50 cc scooter is drinking petrol! it has just been repaired for a petrol leake, which i thought was the problem but now i have it back, it isnt leaking, but it is still getting through a tank of petrol every 2/3 days! i probably travel a total of 20 miles a day. Does anybody know what the problem might be? any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance

O.K. Your fuel isn't leaking. But just to be safe, lets start at the petrol tank and work down. Do you have a fuel tap, that you can turn off when not in use? If so, try this. Check the fuel lines from the tank to the carbs. Next, does the bike start OK in the mornings and then rev high for the rest of the day? If so, you could have a sticky choke. Also, look at the cables, make sure there are no dents, kinks, as these could cause you to run with choke. If you have a rev counter, make sure that your tick over is not too fast (about 1200 - 2000 rpm). Adjust with speed screw on carb.

Should I buy a cheap dirtbike or go all out and buy a better one?

If it is not the fuel lines, a high tick over speed, or a sticky choke, check your gaskets. Failing that, pass.
