Your Stigness!
I got used to shortys going across country many years ago and have loved them ever since.
This is only the second tall windshield I have ever owned.
I had one on an old Suzuki GS850G for a few years and liked it but switched to the lower chest protectors a long time ago once I gave up multi-day trips.
I have put the front tire in all 3 oceans when I was young and foolish. 

No need for any deflector around town but anything over an hour in one direction at higher speeds and I find I need one.
I am up and down constantly between home and the farm and that's about an hour each way, all at 80+, so I caved after 2 years.

I am restoring a couple of older scooters at the moment and I will have screens on both of those, too.

Hi All,
Just ordered a windshield from FortNine.
I just went with their recommended one with the mounting bracket.

When it arrived, the box seemed large for a little chest protector wind deflector.
(BTW - 2 day delivery - bloody amazing!)

I opened her up and took out the mounting kit, read the installation instructions (I know, right?), modified their "how to" so the brackets would fit my scooter and finger tightened everything up to allow for small adjustments.
Went back to the box and....
Holy huge!
It's like a cop screen.

Okay
I figure if that's the recommended one, who am I to judge before trying it out.
Tightened her all up and did a quick walk around.
That is one big-ass windshield!

The proof is in the puttering so I hit the road.
It's wonderful.
Full coverage so only my back will get wet.
Slight drop in top end (92 KPH just before WOT down to 86 KPH just before WOT) but vast improvement in comfort at that speed.
Music is now audible.
The glare off the top rim of the headlight is now blocked.
Bugs be gone!

I am betting it will act as a sail in specific wind conditions but that's workable.

All things considered, an excellent choice by the vendor.

Thanks all for the quick replies.

In random order:
Seat & trunk off
All connectors I could find unplugged and reconnected after checking they were clean
All fuel lines checked - nice and snug, no leaks
I won't put WD40 in my switches but they are clean and secure - I will check each one for continuity
Air filter is clean and not clogged as is the air passage up to the intake
I will check the injector tomorrow.

Fuses checked.

Valves checked this spring (6 weeks ago)
Also new spark plug - put the old one back in to test, same results
It sits all winter after being winterized and then fluids and sparkplug changed in the spring.
Spark plug was snugged up tight (but not too tight) came out clean with a little soot.

I will continue to work at it tomorrow and will provide feedback.
Thanks again!

I have had a few minor glitches with the 200i but overall, it's a sweet ride.
I just passed the 10k km mark on the new (to me) Like 200i.
You cannot lean into corners or you scrape the center stand.
Oil change, spark plug change and valve adjustment were all super easy. Exhaust valve was very tight.
Wonderfully comfortable around town. Lots of get up and go.
Harsh ride over bad roads. Pot holes, cracks, manhole covers....
Gas mileage seems fair. Still working it out.
Top speed seems to be about 90 kms.
Speedometer is remarkably accurate when checked with a GPS.
Don't fill the gas tank beyond the metal bar or it will dribble on the side stand.
The space under the seat gets mighty hot! Has anyone tried using it to cook while on longer trips?

Things to come:
I could only source a regular spark plug. I will put in an iridium as soon as I find one.
I will "hard Seafoam" the fuel system.
Air filter needs checking but it sounds okay.

So far, so good,

My Agility 125 does’nt have a wobble at the rear wheel, but also have a slight play on between the rim- and shaft splines. When I move the wheel backwards and forwards I can hear a slight clacking sound, but there is no up and down or sideways movement.
I have no idea what the torque setting is suppose to be, but to my mind 120 NM is a complete “overkill” on an application like this. There is no way how the nut will come loose with a much lower NM setting. I think the manufacturer should rather have made a better effort to make the splines on the rim and shaft fit properly.

Howdy, ScooterFan.

Yes, 120 NM is massive overload but I looked at the parts and they will support it. Nice chunky bits in there...
Those sloppy tolerances on the splines at least means the wheel will come off one night in the pouring rain half way between Nowhere and downtown ImLostAgain.

Hey Hundacobra
Where are you located?
I am in Ottawa and I am new to scooters but very old to motorbikes.
If you are in range I am willing to come over and have a beer and watch you get frustrated.

After examining the parts I came to the conclusion that the last person to tighten the wheel did not do so fully.
I cleaned and greased everything then assembled and torqued the wheel nut to the correct value (120 N-M!) by having a person stand on the bike as I tightened it.
It felt right so I reassembled the rest of the bike.
Everything seems fine after a test run of about 10kms.

So far it is working fine after re-tightening all the wiring.
Will let you know if there is a recurrence.
