Downtown 300 / Re: What did you do to your DownTown today?
« on: August 06, 2022, 10:39:06 PM »
Replaced the battery again, also disconnected the light for the tub.    It got left on (seat not adjusted so well) and drained the battery.    Battery was only 6 months old, but probably not a good brand (AC-Delco)

My DT is going bye bye soon, I found me a very nice 2013 Honda Silverwing!

Downtown 300 / Re: X-Town 300i - Belt Replacement
« on: August 06, 2022, 10:33:51 PM »
I figured the belt on my PCX would need replacing after 7000 miles, many of them hard miles with a passenger, but nope it still looked brand new.    I recommend taking off the cover and giving it a look see.

It's been out for like 3 years?   Why does it not have it's own section?

Yeah it was them.   It seemed too good to be true.   I'm way too far away to bite anyways.

Today I replaced the gear oil, and did an oil change.    It wasn't too bad.

Has anyone done a thread on how to do the antifreeze?

Where's a good place to get an oil filter?   Are the filters on Ebay OK?

I am finally replacing the battery in mine.    It was easier to get to it than I thought it would be.

Yeah, I'm just going to wait.     Been looking at used Burger 400's too.

and, yes I am aware of the Kymco AK550.   Sure, I would love one, but it's out of my price range, and it's relatively new.   I want to see how time treats them.   It would be nice to pick up a 3 or 4 year old one for half price.

Here's why I was considering it (should have put this in my first post)

1.  I ride 2-up alot with my DT.   The Majesty is a little bigger and more powerful.   
2.  There's a Yamaha dealer 20 miles from where I live, so maintenance would be easier.

I didn't realize Yamaha parts are more expensive than Kymco parts though.

General Discussion / 2014 Yamaha Majesty

So there's a 2014 Yamaha Majesty "nearby" listed for $3199.   

https://classifieds.ksl.com/listing/64963478

I was thinking of trading my 2015 Downtown 300i for it.   I can't find the trade in value for my DT300i, but I figure I would have to put $1000 cash into the deal.

Would you do it?
