I tried to talk him down more but the $2850 is the payoff to his bank. I have to go with him to get the title so he is being honest. I looked up the retail and they go for $5500 new ( in 2012) and the book on it is $3500. Are these scooters good? Thanks for all replies  |

Hey everyone, I just got a offer to buy a 2012 kymco 300 gti people scoot. It has 1600 miles and no falls or damage. Is it worth $2850? Anyone have any experience with these scooters? Thanks in advance

Looking around the web it is simular to all the other drop shippers. I never dealt with them personally. I used Superior power sports and it was fine

Thank you again for the help. I hopefully will get time and get this done on Sunday. You probably just saved me another $70.00.

Thank you everyone for the help! I'll let everyone know how it goes. This will be my first real engine work since having it. More to follow!

Thanks for the help and the welcome!! I had read to mark the chain with the cam shaft so when I put it back it will be right where it was. Does anyone know if that is correct for the timing? The guide I read also reminded me about the valve clearance. Thanks again in advance for all the help and advice. |

Hey everyone! Quick question, the exhaust bolts on my Roketa mc-23-150 broke off and I'm unable to get them out. I ordered a complete emissions gy6 cylinder head from parts for scooters ( www.partsforscooters.com/164-302-Complete-Emissions-GY6-Cylinder-Head). 2 questions; Is this able to be done without removing the whole engine? Do I need to do anything to the pistion that is already there or should the pistion also be replaced? As always thank you in advance for any help! |

Hey everyone. Just want to start off by saying I always have followed this site for some great advice on keeping my scoot running. I have a Roketa mc-23 150. No mods on the engine at all. I had both my exhaust bolts snap the other day and I know how to fix them with easy outs and such. My question is how do you get to the underside of the scooter to do the work. Is there a way to jack it up higher or do you lay it down on its side. Which ever way you have used how did you go about it. Thanks in advance!!!
