Xciting 250 / Re: Redlining too soon?
« on: January 18, 2016, 03:11:28 PM »
AH yes, I did change my belt at the same time, it didn't look worn but when i checked with a vernier against the new one it had narrowed a small amount, i guess this could have effected the top speed and made the rpms higher all round, but the Dr Pulley rollers kept the improved acceleration even with the new belt, the original rollers were clearly worn, The belt was around 55 usd+ shipping from Racing Planet , here is the link

Hi , Mine also started doing this last year , greatly improving pull-away but top speed dropped and so did the fuel consumption, Turned out to be quite simple just the roller weights worn out, mine started getting bad at around 12,000 miles but maybe yours had been used in the city more, On advice i bought a set of Dr pulley rollers 23x18  15G , these are great and the bike STILL had fast pull-away i never go much over 70 mph but the revs came down at that speed.
Here is the link to the ones i bought , they arrived in 8 days.

Agility 125 / Re: Where's the Oil Screen?
« on: July 31, 2013, 08:54:12 AM »
Hi , it's up under the large nut on the bottom of the motor , it's a conical wire screen , you might as well change the oil at the same time as it will pour out once the nut is removed , It doesn't use must oil in the sump so a 1 liter bottle of 10/40 (mobil i use ) will be more that enough ,

More neglected is the EP 80 / 90 gearbox oil in the small reduction  gearbox in the very end of the transmission , near the rear brake adjuster , i would always change that too as sometimes it is NEVER done from new  , you only need a 100 ml tube of this , all Kymco scooters have this and most are neglected , there are many bearings and expensive gears in there , it's a sound investment to do this ,

Hope that helps
