Do I miss year-round biking?  Not a bit of it.  Give me dry roads and sunshine any day, I reckon I've nothing left to prove to anyone, least of all myself.

Yep :) +1

I went away for a fortnight on my Like200 back in 2018. It was good as gold apart from a few electrical gremlins, which were easily sorted on the road.

Before that, I went away for 9 days on a Suzuki Address 110 (UK110NE) - probably the best small scooter I have ever owned.

The trick is to travel light. Keep your gear light :)

And take a few spares. I had a belt go on my Like200 :'(

Hi,

Sounds more likely to me that the belt you've put in is too big. Rear clutch pulleys rarely go all that wrong and rarely get stuck.

Did you compare the size of the old and the new? :)

Vaccuum carb on those older Agilitys - my GY6 stuff always struggled after a layoff to draw new fuel through, but once it was through I was away :)

The worst was when I was on the driveway cranking my Pulse Scout for about 90 seconds (on and off) before it eventually awoke from it's slumber!

New Year's Day 2016 - 111 miles on a 125cc in sleet. The cold wasn't so bad, it was more the appalling lights on that thing.

The City is a nice bit of kit - a good evolution from the standard Agility without making it too techie.

My C70 (passport) is all ready to go in the garage, with nowhere to go :(

I don't know if you get them in the US but I quite like Anlas tyres - cheap but seem to wear well. Used to use them as my winter ones when I was couriering

There's an awful lot of crazy out there on the internet with regards to 5G, including the link above.

Do some balanced research from proper journals and sources.

I'm not saying either way it's harmful or not - you can make that decision.

Morning,

There is a seperate fuse for the ancillaries - see page 44 here

https://www.wheeliegoodmobility.co.uk/user/Diagram%20directory/Kymco-Mobility-Scooter-parts-diagram-EQ40DA(UK).pdf

But I don't know where it is. My instinct would say... is there a glove box or something in the panel in front of your knees? Could it be at the back of there?

It's a standard automotive blade fuse by the look of it.

"M1"?  Where the heck are you travelling to to work then?  In any event, I ALWAYS try to avoid M-Ways when on two wheels!
 ;D

Nottingham twice a week via A52 and M1 :)

I haven't ridden to work since 2018 now, but might do a couple of times this year I hope. That is a 0545 to 0745 job, so I have seen the wrong side of the dawn quite a bit :)

I need to work out a 45mph-friendly route out now that I don't have the Like200 to flog on the M1, however.
