New guy; new Kymco

[08087]

If we poke fun at one another it should be without intent to hurtor mame. Answers to scooter question do get asked and answered here quite well, if it weren't for the banter the forum would be quite dull. It's no different then a car forum or boating forum, you have sub forums for a reason, to make friendships and bond with fellow members.

I don't know...  I'm a member of a couple of different scooter forums and this one seems to be the most informative AND the most fun.  It would seem to me that when a thread goes off topic and you're sick of reading the banter, then just stop clicking on that topic.  Every question I've seen asked has gotten a very good and informative answer.  And, when the topic inevitably goes off track, then I either quit reading it or stay tuned.  Either way, it's my choice.

again I say...this forum is just one big playground for me... we give and get just about anything... if there's a bully in the sand box...I'll just go home...

I have to warn you.....I started with a 250 than to a 300 and now settled in with a 500RI, Kymco Exciting. I never thought I would be on a bike again. My wife made a comment.."you don'[t have to ride it everyday you know". What she must have meant by that was, it will be there tomorrow or days later you know! Oh Well!

You should've said, "I don't *have* to... but, if I stick around the house too much, I'll start more unfinished projects and my 'honey-do' list will grow and grow.  I'm just thinking of your sanity, dear."

Exactly my feelings. Seems some folk who say the forums gone to hell and become an unmoderated childish joke are themselves participating in said joke

Not meant as an attack, an insult or a complaint, just an observation.

About 6 months after I bought my Super 8 I bought a Yager so when my Son visits me in florida we could both ride. Loved my Yager so much that I bought a second Yager so this year we will be riding equal rides but... I liked my Super 8 so much that I had to keep it (not trading it in). I have over 5500 miles on it and use it for all my local running (10-24 miles).
For all the talk about fuel injection there just seems to be a subtle smoothness with the carb that I enjoy (am I the only one?).
Anyway enjoy it too much to part at this time but it is work riding all 3 each week to keep them running smooth.
I know its a hard life but someone has to do it and compared to taking care of my ex wifes horse hobby, these are easier

And they smell better, too.

Okay, well not exactly new, as it's a 2009..

But anyways, I'm posting here from Oklahoma City, appears this is the place to be for all my Kymco needs.

Now if only I could get this weather to straighten out so I can get it out some more. What do you guys think?

Hello Disinfected - nice scoot you have and welcome to the forums!   

As you may have noticed sometimes things go off track a bit around here.  If you can put up with the "entertainment" and stick around, you will find it to be a great technical resource if you need help with something in the future...

Now I'm off to explain to the wife that I'm late meeting her because I had to finish reading these 9 pages..

+1 on the technical advice
+1 on the entertainment value

This is def one of the better forums out there, IMO.
