Title: Say Hello fron Brazil. Speedometer and outher things
Post by: fabiopasche on August 16, 2018, 02:27:14 PM: :-[

Hi all, my name is Fabio, im from Brazil,

Found this forum to try got helps about my new scooter, Kymco DonwTonw 300i

(https://scontent.fgig4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/25446302_781156212069418_9034888748340957039_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=d537bd6444cf77fcb09517281b45da6f&oe=5C02B4A4)

I have a lot of questions about this scooter, but first of all, sorry for my inglish, o know basic words only ...

The orange color is wonderful.

Recently I got involved in an accident. Because of this, I'm painting the bike in yellow, similar to the Chev Camaro (soon photos).

I tried to change the color of the speedometer, but getting demage.

Most of my English is made by Google Translate.

Good morning, thank you for reply. I do not understand anything about mechanics.

What I noticed is that the fixing plugs are similar.

I just looked at pictures on the internet, and I can not tell if they really work.

To be sure, I have to do import of the speedometer and US Euro or USA Dollar values â€‹â€‹are very much compared to Brazil BLR.

We do not have 125i here.

Good morning, I believe, be simple. Physically they look very similar. What do you think about ??

Hi bro..

But what about the functions? And the fixing screws

A friend told me that speed readers and some other information can be interpreted differently than the original speedometer

Post by: CROSSBOLT on August 17, 2018, 09:43:43 PM: Front wheel and tire must be the same, tone wheel (silver disc with slots) must be the same for speedo to read correctly. That's why you have to be careful in study of both types. The DT300I and the DT125I are probably the same bike with different size engine but that is a guess. Kymco has been known to re-think different models. You should just change the bulbs for color in the correct instrument assembly.

Hi

I think the same, but I'm not a mechanic, so I'll wait for the opinion of who can guarantee us that it works fine or not ...

I'll have to find out how this piece arrives in Brazil later

Posso sugerir que vocÃª faÃ§a como foi sugerido, e simplesmente mude as lÃ¢mpadas dentro da unidade do velocÃmetro para a cor que vocÃª gostaria? Esta serÃ¡ a opÃ§Ã£o mais simples e menos dispendiosa para vocÃª. Foi sugerido trÃªs vezes agora, e cada vez que vocÃª aparentemente examinou. As pessoas neste fÃ³rum sÃ£o muito bem informadas, e se elas lhe disserem que mudar as luzes no velocÃmetro Ã© a coisa mais fÃ¡cil de fazer, entÃ£o vocÃª deve ouvir esse conselho.

Se vocÃª nÃ£o acha que pode fazÃª-lo sozinho, encontre um grupo local de entusiastas de eletrÃ´nicos, entusiastas de controle de rÃ¡dio ou um grupo de "fabricantes" que gostam de mexer em gadgets. Eles quase certamente serÃ£o capazes de ajudÃ¡-lo, e vocÃª poderÃ¡ fazer novos amigos lÃ¡. HÃ¡ tambÃ©m um bom nÃºmero de tutoriais sobre como trocar as lÃ¢mpadas em unidades de velocÃmetro em scooters, e essas podem ser encontradas no YouTube ou em outros lugares na Internet.

Boa sorte para vocÃª.

OlÃ¡, seu portuguÃªs Ã© Ã³timo .. :P

Eu tentei trocar as cores, mas meu painel foi danificado. Estou com problemas nos marcadores de combustÃvel e algumas outras informaÃ§Ãµes no display central, nÃ£o aparecem mais

Vou ter que comprar outro painel de qualquer forma

Hello, your Portuguese is great ..: P

I tried to change the colors, but my panel was damaged. I'm having problems with the fuel markers and some other information on the central display, they no longer appear

I'll have to buy another panel anyway
