Seems to me you need to read your post before posting it. You said you get the code with the side stand down or up but attempted to say it only happens with it down. Hmm you make no sense. This is why I'm looking for a different make of scooter next time. Kymco is called quality but it really isnt. If you bought a brand new car that threw codes for a different car you'd call the car junk but Kymcos seem to be all about things like that. Hell even a parts supplier came on these forums to bash kymco and its customers and say he's about to wash his hands of kymco. I like that my chinese kymco was so cheap but otherwise it was engineered and designed by people who dont seem concerned about customer feed back. Although to the credit of the chinese my Like is better built than my PGO I used to have. Good luck with your DT. Round here only people over the age of 60 buy maxi scooters. Every other person has the sense to buy a used motorcycle for less and get a motor that is at least twice the size. Even I am considering the Honda motorcycle with the automatic shifting six speed tranny. It is seven grand brand new, you'd have to pay three grand more for the kymco of the same motor size. Storage space AKA unused empty space isnt worth three grand. And Im willing to bet Honda's motor and tranny are far better.
Heh.. Ok, I'll bite..
We have a saying in my country - "To read like the devil reads the Bible"
This is how I get the engine code:
- Sidestand down
- Try to start the engine - which fails obviously
- Retract sidestand
- Start the engine
- Code 01 or 10 appears on the display.
I am very sorry if I failed to communicate this in a way that pleased your eyes and brain.
For some reason I get the feeling you are trying to insult me by saying only old people ride maxi scooters. You would have to try a bit harder. Since it seems such a big deal what other people ride I would venture to believe you are about 15 years old. I feel bad for you if you really think that Taiwan is a part of China, but perhaps every scooter made in Asia is Chinese...?
But I am glad to hear my non problem makes you want to buy a different scooter. Perhaps a Honda made in Thailand?

"In early 2008, KYMCO was chosen by BMW to supply the engines for their G450 X Enduro bike." As we all know BMW makes only sh**, so I guess you are right, NeoGenesisMaxi
