Gwarrenster, make sure your side stand is up. As that will cut power I think. Job

I down' think Ckizer gets it. You can set at that intersection for hours. The light at the intersection where I work won' pick up a scooter at all and the oncoming traffic is running close to 50 mph. I just turn right and then make two lefts to get back to the right direction home. I do not want to try and beat the traffic. Jeff

Yes I have been helped many times and I offer what ever assistance I can. I have changed many a flat tire for ladies or old people. I believe what goes around comes around. Jeff

Scott It is a good looking scoot. Almost a classic. Enjoy it. I just got a new 2008 Diamo Tourista 300 a couple of weeks ago and I was surprised with to power over my Kymko Like 200

Here is my new 2008 Diamond Tourists 300. I picked it up from a small bike shop in Seligman Arizona. A 750 mile drive in the rain. The scoot was in the inventory of a Phoenix dealer who went bankrupt a few years ago. I have put 10 miles on it today after church and it is a dream. It seems like it is twice the size and power of my Like 200. I will be posting for help as I start detailing it out next week. I got it for $1400 I think I got a great running bike. Attachments:

Scootnwin what do I need to ask the seller about. I should be able to see the repair bill as he just got it out of the Suzuki dealers shop. I have known the seller for several years through the Gold Wing club before I came to scooters.

I have an opportunity to buy a clean 2007 650 Burgman that has just had a tune-up and clutch rebuild and new tires for $2500. Is that a good price? The scoot has 50,000 highway miles on it and it has always been well cared for. Let me know what you think it is worth. Thanks, JOB

Robert the Kymco brand has good quality products. I bought a 2012 Like200 for $2499 last May so I would offer around $1900 for a 2 year old display. Good luck. Job

I used to have a local guy that I rode with he had a Yamaha FJR1200 and he rode every Thursday. I got a part time job and we haven't been able to ride in months. I enjoy lone rides as it gives me time to think and get my head straight. Attachments:

I got the white walls on Craig's list for $50 for the pair. They are brand new. I did have some rim leakage on front and back, The service shop broke them down again and cleaned and put some sealer on the bead and they are working great now. I still can't believe that the retail cost for this scooter was $2495 plus $100 freight and dealer prep.
