Title: 2010 Like 50 2T Gear Oil Change
Post by: demeter on March 16, 2015, 06:32:43 AM: My owners manual is ripped and maybe even missing pages... The page I did find on gear oil only mentions 1 screw.

Do I change the gear oil all via that 1 screw on the middle right? And suck it out and refill with a syringe. Or do I do like I see in all the other scooter videos? The 2 screw method. A bottom drain screw and the middle right refill screw.

I found the inspection screw (middle right) but don't want to just start unscrewing screws to maybe find a drain screw...

Thanks

I gotta think they have screw #1 & #2 listed backwards.(http://i57.tinypic.com/2806wet.jpg)
Drain at bolt #1 and refill at bolt #2....with the specified amount >> "exchange" 0.12 L

But more than that, the "filler" bolt theoretically is the "inspection" bolt. Just a terrible explanation of how to check the gear oil!!!! Not to mention some good chinglish.

Post by: BettinANDlosing on March 17, 2015, 04:13:03 AM: Yeah I wouldn't listen to the manual on this one. Go get a 60cc syringe from an animal feed store or some auto parts store. Drain the gear oil from the lower bolt hole, it's actually UNDER the cvt cover. Then fill from the top hole. I believe the like 50 is 120cc.

Post by: demeter on March 17, 2015, 06:44:04 AM: Problem solved. Gear oil changed. Thanks everyone!

My manual and Stigs were both off (for my bike anyway). The drain screw was one screw over from the manual. Inspection/refill screw was where it was supposed to be.
