Nice here is proof of that Kymco reliability! 
So if u dont mind my asking did u put them on all the miles yourself and what work has it had to keep in running condition?
The first 19,000 were put on by the previous owner, who bought it in 2009. I've put on the rest since I bought it in November.
Rotella oil has been the ONLY oil used in this scooter ever. I change the engine oil as soon as the odometer starts a new 1,000 or shortly after; I'll change it again as soon as it cracks 26,000km.
Besides that, I've:
1. Replaced the spark plug to an NGK.
2. Cleaned the airbox regularly using brake cleaner.
3. Replaced the petcock and main carb jet due to age.
4. Changed the gear oil (Valvoline 80w-90 limited slip oil) at 20,000km.
5. Back tire was replaced prior to me buying it, but I'll be buying new tires soon (preferably City Grips).
6. Adjusted valves to 0.04, both I/E (intake and exhaust). They haven't needed an adjustment since.
7. Removed the PVAP emissions system. PAIR system remains intact.
8. Sprayed the exhaust pipe with Rustoleum to protect from weather and road salts.
9. Used SeaFoam in the gas, as the Richmond Metro does NOT have any pure-gas stations. No issues with carb gum up. I've also used it in my crankcase oil* to keep the valves clean and quiet.
Planned work I have for it:
1. Replace stock variator with Dr. Pulley variator and 14g slider weights, and change the belt.
2. Replace clutch assembly with new (modified) stock assembly, only the clutch bell will be perforated (better cooling) and the contra spring will be the "2 Grander" spring. The remainder of the assembly will be stock.
3. Replace tires, front is stock and JUST started to cup while the rear is a replacement and is started to bald in the center.
4. Inside case cleaning, upgrade to a 12-pole stator, and replace flywheel. If the cylinder/head go out, a 61mm BBK and new crankshaft will be installed. The former will only be done if the latter happens (do it all at once)!
5. Install EcoTrons EFI kit.
6. Install Puig Touring Windshield.
*Yes, you can use SeaFoam in your crankcase oil. It says so on the can. Just pour it in FIRST before putting in new oil when doing oil changes, then change it again when the oil gets dirty.
SeaFoam is
oil-based, not alchohol based as some may think. If I'm lying, someone has a false advertising lawsuit to file...
Feel free to ask any more questions!
