Out with the smelly 2012 LIKE200iLX
« on: July 26, 2021, 06:01:02 PM »
It's fumes are so bad that I warm it up away from the house until I can get the garage door closed!
From the first day this scoot was not the cleanest smelling engine. No, doesn't burn a drop of oil. Runs great. Maybe it's that Yamaha motorcycle fuel pump in there....? Haven't checked gas mileage in years.....


Early start...

Ready to turn the corner here into town and spotted this sky.....hopped off took 3 snaps ...and it was g o n e  in 45 seconds....to just some grey clouds.

It does not take much to stink up with gas fumes. You think the smell is from the exhaust? My wife's Like 200i got close to 100 mpg as I recall...

Always close the garage door before I fire up the scooter for the same reason! And mine’s a Euro 4 2019 model!
Regards & ride safe,
