According to John @ Moxie's Scooter, the variator wore out that is what casued the belt to break.

I am waiting to hear from Moxie's Scooters as to why this has happened.

Downtown 300 / Another Busted Belt after 4K miles
« on: February 12, 2017, 06:31:52 PM »
Hi Everyone
Just over 2 weeks ago and just over 4k since my last belt broke, my 2012 Dowtown 300i belt broke again. I don't know why this happening any suggestions. Beside get a new scooter. This time, I was using Dr. Pulley's sliders.

Unfortunately, I came across a frog this morning. It was by my garage door. I accidently ran over it with our RAV-4. It went splat. If it was in mid-air, it would have survived. The grill would have caught it.

I usually carry my phone in my left pocket of my jacket and my wallet is in the left front pocket of my pants.

It is hard to say. My Downtown has over 42,0000 miles on her. Since November 2015, I have her in the shop for engine issue and 2 CVT issues. Average cost was around $240 per incident. I ride about 200 miles a week. I rather still fix her up instead having a monthly payment.

I wear a modular helmet. I travel all over the Fort Worth-Dallas area.

I did the Givi Windscreen. It did a great job but what I did not like was the no air area. The Givi deflected the wind higher so there was no air movement around my helmet. Which caused a problem for me. There was no fresh air going thru my helmet. So I switched back to the Kymco windscreen

New Problem or an old problem: last year, my right rear seat lock spring broke. The guys at Moxie replaced it with a re-engineered spring. It worked until last week. We are going to order a whole new right rear seat lock, Kymco doesn't just sell the spring by itself.
Also has anyone replaced their turn signal switch? My switch is acting up. Sometimes when I shift the the lever for a right turn or a left turn, the signal light will turn on and stay solid. It does not start blinking. If I jiggle the lever when it is in the center after a freeze up, the signal light will start blinking.
