Just replaced the spark plug in my Grand Dink and it'll start but it idles too low for a minute then dies.
Suggestions?

I initially looked at Japanese scooters but was put off by the prices. I thought the GV250 was a pretty good deal. So far the only complaint I have is the body panels are a pain to take off.

As for the Genuine scooter:I recently bought a Yamaha FJR 1300. The dealer also carries Genuine scooters so I looked them over while waiting for the almighty paperwork. I wasn't impressed with the fit and finish(especially the finish) or even the quality of some of the materials. Other than that I know little about them but from what I've seen I'd be wary. Good luck! :)

I removed the center panel but the spark plug is still very hard to access. Am I missing something?

Grandvista 250 / body panels
« on: May 22, 2010, 11:45:10 PM »
I'm removing some of the body panels to replace the sparkplug and adjust the valves. My shop manual isn't very accurate on where and what bolts to remove.  These panels are a pain! Any tips before I go crazy? >:(

Amyone know where I can get a Kymco logo patch? On my leather riding jacket I have a Triumph and a Yamaha patches (for my motorcycles) but I don't have a Kymco patch for by beloved scooter.

Why not just get a Kymco manual?

Getting the service manual is well worth it. :)

Happy Thanksgiving to all. Remember all you have to be thankful for. And especially remember our Marines, soldiers, sailors and airmen overseas. :)

Anyone know where I can get a new spark plug? The manual says an NGK  DPR7EA-9. I can't find one anywhere.
