Agility 125 / Re: decreasing gas milage

Funny you should ask about decreasing gas mileage I kind of noticed the same thing. I think  you are probably (and me too) riding full throttle more than you use to.

I have 1200km on my scooter and I tend to ride it full throttle more and more. It is just an underpowered vehicle and what felt fast at half throttle now feels slow at full  ;D

Agility 125 / Re: Agility 125 Gear oil volume issue?
« on: October 06, 2008, 08:11:37 PM »
shnikus,

I just changed mine on my Agility 125.....but I used a pumper to fill it up to the bottom of the fill hole. Then I noticed the Sevice Manual and Owners Manual stated different volumes. Then I saw the thread on the People 200s where the manual said to, "fill to the bottom of the fill hole" and it turned out that was a document error....so I wanted to know if the Agility manual was incorrect also like the People 200s manual.

I emailed Kymco USA and got the reply in the above post. They say to drain and fill with 0.181 Liters....period. Fill it by volume not by sight....0.181L is the correct amount.

Here is the official response from Kymco:

John,

In this case, the service manual is incorrect. The correct volume of gear
oil for this unit is .21 liters at disassembly, and .181 liters at change.
Even with the low volumes described in the service manual, the unit should
operate properly with no abnormal side effects. This is due to the
technology and exacting tolerances used in the design and production of
these parts; these systems only need a small amount of oil for lubrication
and rely very little on the oil for cooling purposes as older designs did.

Agility 125 / Agility 125 Gear oil volume issue?
« on: October 05, 2008, 11:45:56 PM »
How come the user manual (page 33)  says to fill the Agility 125 wih 0.19L and the service manual (section 10, 10-5) says use 0.10 Liters when changing.

Which one is correct? If you just fill it until it comes out the fill hole are you cool?

Or is it like the People 200S where you can fill it too much and the manual is wrong? Please let me know.

Agility 125 / First oil change on Agility 125.....question......
« on: October 05, 2008, 03:49:55 AM »
I searched the world over for the 15W-40 and the only one I can find locally is Shell Rotella T SAE 15W-40 API SL certified....which by the label seems to be marketed towards Diesel engines but I have heard of people using it in motorcycles.

I also found Castrol 10W-40 for 4-stroke motorcycles that is API SG certified.

Which oil would you use if these were the only choices you had?

Thanks

Agility 125 / Re: Speedometer issue
« on: September 25, 2008, 11:40:29 PM »
On a flat stretch of road I got my Agility 125 to hit a dreamometer reading of 70 miles per Hour (Not KM). Is that an actual 60mph? I was surprised...I backed off right away as my unit only has 170KM on it and it is still braking in.

Thanks for the information.....I will change the oil soon...I asked the dealer if I should change the oil right away because it was from "China".....they said no because it was a Kymco. They said they use decent oil unlike the no name China made stuff. That said, I will change it after a hundred miles.

As for mods I won't get too caught up in it....but after break in a little extra probably would not hurt. I am happy with this machine....I need to get the service manual and start reading as I only have experience wrenching on my 2 storke jetski.

Agility 125 / Just purchased a new 2009 Kymco 125
« on: September 20, 2008, 09:47:53 PM »
Hi,

I just purchased a new Agility 125 over the phone and I pick it up tomorrow 21SEP08. I have never rode or even seen this scooter in person. My entire buying decision was based on the reviews online, styling and price. Here in California these are a hot item...I purchased mine for $2,350.00 out the door from Chaparral Motorsposts in San Bernardino. I live in San Diego and this was the best I could do.

I just wanted to drop in and share my purchase with fellow owners....even if I don't know you I will be asking questions.

Thanks
