Technical | How To / Rear brake Startup Problem

« on: April 20, 2012, 10:28:50 AM »

When I try to start my GrandVista 250, I usually hold in the left brake and press the ignition.

Now, when I try to start it up, it doesn't start. I have to hold in the right brake and start it. How can I fix the left brake lever/start?

Technical | How To / GV250 Tuneup

« on: April 14, 2012, 01:42:42 AM »

So I just got my '07 Grandvista 250 shipped up to Alaska. Woo hoo!!

The local shop wanted $150 to change the oil. Yeah.

So I went out and got some oil and some gear oil and changed both those fluids.

My question is about the spark plug. I have removed the panel to access it, but I really don't honestly know where to look for the plug. And it's also a very tight fit. Where is it, and do I need any special tools or extensions? What type of socket?

Walk me through it, I'm a little new to this. And I don't want to pay $100 just to change a damn plug.

Thanks!!!!!

Perfect! Fantastic info. I haven't had my GV250 in my possession for over two years, but it's back! And time for a tune-up! This GV250 will be riding the great state of Alaska this year!
