Front Forks
« on: June 29, 2019, 05:36:36 PM »
I had a seal go out on the Yager, and tried to find a replacement fork, because they are designed to be replaced, and not fixed. Three different Kymco dealers that have an internet parts presence = crickets.
I had purchased a set of Honda PCX seals and dustcovers, because they are the same size, and then realized it's about impossible to take the fork apart and replace the seals.
So I went back to the PCX and looked at the front fork. From the part number, it looks like they are supplied by Kymco, and it looks like it just might fit. I've got a couple on order, and will find out if this is a viable alternative to the non-existent Kymco replacement part.

So I've ordered forks four different times from four different Kymco dealers. Nothing.
I'm starting to hate this thing.

Have you tried Solano Cycle in Florida? Martin there was excellent.  You might try calling him.

Yes. I know Martin pretty well. And he's trying to get them the same place everyone else does. Same result.

The new forks finally showed up today.  that should give you a good idea of how long it takes to get parts that are model exclusive.
