Air Filter Replacement Video
« on: May 05, 2013, 09:32:41 PM »
I ordered a spare air filter for my Like 200i and the dealer wasn't sure if it was the right one or not due to part number changes on the microfiche. The new filter was $26 US and took just a few days to arrive.  Sure enough, the one that arrived is not the right filter so I will need to swap it out, thankfully my old filter is still in great shape.  I made a short video showing how to gain access to the air filter if you need to change yours and aren't sure how.  It is very, very easy and all you need is a Phillips (cross tip) screwdriver and about 5 minutes... and a new air filter, of course.  If you go to my YouTube channel, please rate the video, comment and subscribe.  Thanks!

Super!
This kind of stuff is invaluable to all of us newbies with scooters.
I could have pulled on those plastic panels all day, and never figured out that you need to slide it sideways 1/4 inch.
I imagine this kind of info seems old hat to the experienced - but it is GOLDEN Info to myself - & probably a number of others.
This forum site is agreat because of guys like you!

I am glad the video is helpful.  I will make some more as I do things with scooter.  For now, I have riding videos on my YouTube channel you can watch. :)

I would go with blue. You can break the bond easily with a wrench or socket. Red is stronger and may require heat to break the bond while using a wrench or socket.
