Agility 125 / Cruising speed
« on: June 14, 2011, 01:59:49 AM »
Just wondering what indicated speed you all are comfortable with.  Last weekend i found myself on a 55mph stretch and it seemed to handle it fine with an indicated 58-59 without pinning the throttle to the stop.  Just worried about pushing the engine too long.  How fast do you feel it can safely cruise at for an hour or so?

Agility 125 / First Service - Valve clearance check needed?
« on: May 19, 2011, 02:38:12 PM »
Hey All!

Time for the first service.  The dealer I got my scoot from is seriously lacking in the customer service dept.  Horror stories all around about him.  Unfortunately I did not know this when I bought the scoot, guess I am too trustworthy.

Anyways, he was including first service with my purchase for 'free'.  I do not want him to work on this bike and have found a great dealer in town to work on it instead.

Question is, they say the valve clearance check will take about an hour labor which is $70 in addition to the half hour for oil/gear oil change.

The scoot seams to be running great (knock on wood)

Do I have them go ahead and check valve clearance or is it something that can wait?

Thanks in advance!

Hey Guys,

Got them installed.  Took a while because I put a windshield on too so now with the windshield mount the mirrors are raised an additional inch.  With the raise and extension of the mirrors I can clearly see behind me much easier than before.  They came with mounting bolts which was a nice suprise.

As long as you can afford it and you are happy with it, you got a good deal regardless of what some of the outlier's are going for  ;D

Hello!

I too am new to scoots, rode a moped for years as a kid but nothing faster than 35.

I just purchased a 2011 agility and paid 2100 OTD with a nice GIVI topcase and first service included.  Figured that was a decent deal, not a homerun but decent.  I would say $1500 is a good deal for yours and $1200 would be fantastic.  The seller should be able to get $1500 easy if they hold out for it.

A few things I noticed about the Agility - As a noob (so take with a grain of salt)

1.  Very peppy ( I am 200lbs ) and very agile, just like the name hints.

2.  Rear brake isnt as strong as I would like, maybe that has to do with being brand new.

3. Front brake is excellent.

4. Since there is nothing substantial in front of you when riding, I decided to get a small touring windshield and will install that this afternoon.  I also purchased mirror risers extenders so I could get a better view of what was behind me.

All in all I love this scooter and I think it will serve me well.  Sounds like you have the option to make a great buy!

Thanks guys.  I did see that thread initially but those mirrors seem like more for style than anything else.  Do you think they will offer better coverage as well?

Hey All!

Seems like a great forum here!  I have searched this forum looking for a solution to my problem and havent seen one so I figured i'd ask.

I have adjusted the OEM mirrors on my agility and just cant get the right balance between seeing whats behind me and on the sides.

I would like to find mirrors that are a bit 'longer' meaning they stick out further so I can see better behind me around my arms.

Any input is appreciated!
