People GT 300i / New variator and sliders
« on: May 19, 2016, 07:13:54 PM »
So I finally changed the variator, sliders and clutch spring and I can definitely tell the difference.  One thing I have noticed is that my bike sounds louder.  Is this normal?  Who here has used the Malossi variator with only 6 sliders as opposed to the stock 8?

I also changed the tires and put a 120 on the front.  What psi do those of you who have gone bigger use?

TIA!

Thanks for the replies.  I was beginning to wonder if anyone was still here.   :)

So far trying to find any videos on servicing this bike has been frustrating.  I know I'm not the only one looking so I think I will set up a camera to record everything.  Hopefully someone will benefit from it.

My parts have shipped so I hope to get everything done within the next week.  I'm also changing the  tires so wish me luck.

People GT 300i / Kymco parts or universal?
« on: March 31, 2016, 03:15:33 AM »
Hello all! 

I am about to replace the Variator and weights on my bike and I was just wondering if the circlips and o rings are Kymco only or if they are standard sizes I can find locally.

This is the first time I am tearing my bike apart myself but I feel fairly confident after following you gear heads and watching YouTube videos.  I plan on much swearing and some blood to be shed but I'm really excited to finally mod my bike!

Thanks!

People GT 300i / Foot pegs?

Has anyone toyed with the idea of adding foot pegs to their Bike?  It would be nice to be able to stretch my legs on those long rides.

How does the windshield hold up under high speeds?

People GT 300i / Re: Small exhaust cover coming loose.

Hi Joe!  I do remember you and your brother from Amerivespa.  Glad to hear you love the bike.

The dealer replaced the shield and it wasn't so much the screws were coming loose.  The screws were tight when I stopped on my way to Amerivespa but the shield was rattling away.  I don't know if I would have lost it but I didn't want to take any chances since it had just been replaced.  I'll just have to keep an eye on it but since they had to replace a bolt the second time around, they added loctite so we'll see.

People GT 300i / Small exhaust cover coming loose.
« on: July 19, 2012, 10:56:08 PM »
I lost my small exhaust cover shortly after buying the scoot.  The dealer figured it was the vibration causing the screws to come loose.  They replaced the parts under warranty and then I went to Amerivespa.  When I got to my first stop along the way, the cover was very loose but still attached.  I decided to just remove it rather than take the risk of losing yet another one.

Has anyone else had this problem? :-\

Thanks,
Tracy

Should I take the no response to mean that no one else knows where it is either?

People GT 300i / Crankcase Breather
« on: May 07, 2012, 02:18:19 AM »
I just did the 600 mile maintenance on my scoot and while I have the service manual, I couldn't find where the crankcase breather is or what it even looks like.  Did I just gloss over it while going through the manual?

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks,
Tracy

People GT 300i / Re: People GT 300i Oil Filter ?
« on: April 15, 2012, 09:02:51 PM »
I read the responses to this question here and on the DT300 forum but Munks' responses were missing.  Did I miss something????

I need to do my 1 month/600 mile maintenance and I am curious as to where the oil filter is located.  Could someone fill in the blanks for me?

Thanks!

People GT 300i / Manual
« on: April 15, 2012, 09:00:09 PM »
Where can I get my hands on the repair/shop manual for the 300?  I've been looking all over and I'm not sure if some of the sites I find are reputable.

Thanks!

Thanks,
