I'll give it a shot with surf canyon. I will never quit riding 50cc scoots. They are just too much fun. My first 1 was a 64-65 vespa when I was 14. Wish I had that 1 today. I bent the front end on a curb racing my buddies hodaka ace 90.

I think it said 50cc-125cc, but I figure the plastics are all the same.

Hi im from the philippines.

here's HOW TO REMOVE THE FRONT COVER
To remove the front panel. remove the two screws






Once the front panel is remove.

remove the rubber cap of the headlight(behind)
Note: the buld has a clip before you can remoe it, you may use a small mirror to see how you can unclip it
that is where you will use your magic figer and to figure it out to loosen the clip.

You can also go in underneath to get to the bulbs... you have a tight fit either way though.
I will ski till Hell freezes over... then I will have no fear of death.

The service-manual is here. http://scootergrisen.dk/scooterhjemmeside/download/kymco_super8_servicemanual.pdf

The part list is also nice to have. http://scootergrisen.dk/scooterhjemmeside/download/kymco_super8_reservedele.pdf

These are for the 50 but most things are the same.
My advices are Old Timer tricks that need operating braincells and general care when employed.
