Kymco 700i
« on: August 07, 2019, 10:43:57 AM »
Hello guys and guys. I am new to this forum and Kymco machines. I have a 2018 700i hunter sxs. Long story short I let my friend drive it and he must of shifted it to fast and the transmission broke through the case. I am having a hard time finding any parts schematics or places to purchase parts. Can anyone assist? The machine is. 2018 and only has 150 miles. Any help would be appreciated.

Hope your "friend" is going to man-up on the bill! I don't know but your "friend" should have understood these are to be shifted ONLY when stopped! One of the side x side guys will know something...

Your going to need a factory service manual, I got mine thru "cyclepedia" an online manual service. I have both hard print copy and the online version, they also offer a problem consulting service once you join. Mine was 100 for both orint and online lifetime.  You will need to go thru a dealer for parts. If the case is actually broken you might just consider a whole new engine/trans assembly. Would be a lot less labor!  Kymco USA has a parts break down with part numbers, you will need to join for access but it is free. I hope your frind is going to step up cause this isnt gonna be cheap.  Another reason I carry full coverage ins just like my car. Find a good dealer to help you out. Even if not local, UPS ships everyday!  Good luck and keep us posted

What kinda full coverage insurance covers repairs that aren’t the result of a collision?

You need to be very carefull w the claim is filed...it is nsured as an offroad vehicle so some policies will cover damage from offroading, similiar to a boat ins policy.  Your boat can be covered if it hits something floating in the water, an offroad vehicle can be covered while riding offroad. I don know the full story, but if the machine was taken without permission or something was run into, a possible claim could be made.  Many policies on sports equipment has much different coverage than your auto.  Carefull shopping is needed to get extra coverage for unusual or non customery coverage.  I have no idea whether it would cover this guys problems.
