Question...
Can a picture in the moving banner be replaced with an updated one?
The OldChopperGuy traded the black and silver Xingyue 150 on this Kymco 250 Grandvista...

Many thanks!

JR,
Thanks SO much! I surely didn't mean for you to mess with it until you and the Missus got through all the weather mess. Yeah, the weather guys thought we'd get hit dead-center (had all the emergency stuff ready) but it went just north of us and on to your area. People killed, lots of loss of property... Our prayers are always with you!Sincerely,Leo

Alleyoop,
Thanks! She is OLD, got a LOT of miles on her, but runs like new. I found a REALLY good, honest B&M store almost next-door: MOXIE SCOOTERS. John Raimondi, the owner is one GREAT fellow! Even took my old Chinese 150 in trade! The GV is an '07 with 14K miles, but John sold it new and maintained it. It got traded on a new fuel-injected 300. Before selling "Minnie Mouse" as I call her, he went through her and replaced anything needed.
I wanted P-rated tires, since I do a LOT of 70mph riding. And... The old gal was just begging for wide-whites. I found Shinko to be the only maker offering a P-rated whitewall in the 120/70/12 front-tire size, but NOBODY seems to make a whitewall in the 140/70/12 rear size. John contacted tire people and found the Michelin "Power Pure" was their recommendation to mix with the Shinko, so he got me one.
I used one of the several whitewall "paint" products to make me a home-brewed whitewall... Not the best stuff, but looks fine on the scoot! We'll see how it holds up... LOL! Shinko may not be the Rolls Royce of tires, but seem to be good "middle of the road" brand. Anyway, after a good shakedown ride on the freeway, I'm VERY happy with the way this mix of Shinko and Michelin handles! Light years ahead of the Kendas.
Getting a new scooter is one thing, but getting one THIS used really shows how well it was made long ago. And this Kymco seems to be made VERY well. It reminds me of a modern Japanese car... EVERYTHING is heavy-duty, and still working! SWEET!
So... If I need any advice now, it will be for the water-cooled 250... I'm hoping I won't be needing TOO much help, but if I do, i'll be shouting for ya... LOL!
Ride safe!
Leo
