Problem with Scooter running

Hi all! 

     Just starting up my scooter season here and today I hit a big bump in the road.  Right after I would hit the throttle, but it was "slipping" kinda like a car does when the transmission slips.  Then it shut itself off.  I can start it, but it goes right back into this problem within a few minutes.  Can anyone tell me what I might of jostled loose that would cause this kind of problem and how to fix it?  I don't have any leaks.  It's a 2006 Key West.

Thanks!
Holly

I figured it out.  Was a little loose.  Got it back tight and it's working great again.  Thanks for directing me to the problem.
