Hi, everybody, I recently noticed on the cover of the mirror on the passenger side an ugly little spot. Was not an insect hit and could not be polished away. It looks like the dark-Chrome-painting there is unsightly colored – almost as if it was ‘running’. The spot is not too large (~ 7mm), but does not look good. I can’t see any unevenness due to rockfall either. (I’m still making a picture.) Should I report this better or I don’t want to be too small-sized in the car dealership/workshop, after there was already a lot of back & forth. In general, I find the painting (Ascot green with me) at the Stinger very sensitive – did you have similar experiences?

At full throttle and high speeds no power
Hello all, I have a Yamaha XV 750 4PW BJ97 where I refreshed everything somewhat before I drove it again after a long standing time. Now I have the following problems: At full load in the upper speed range no more power, at gas removal misignitions and white spark plugs. Air filter is fresh – intake I will test whether densely Keyster carburettor repair set carburettor synchronised New fuel lines tank checked and fresh fuel The only thing I n och habe: Since it is a V2 engine and the petrol tap membrane was somehow not dense I blinded the vacuum hose from the suction nozzle to the petrol tap and then drive with the position PRI (run through). After that I re-synchronized the carburettor like above. In the stand it finally ran a lot better and quieter but still the problem with the high speed and no more power… (from approx. 4.5 thousand revolutions no more power and only very slow turn up) U And when it’s cold and I activate the choke it jumps briefly on turns up and goes out again. Then I have to turn the stand gas screw very far in so that it gets temperature after eternal E-starter at some point and stays without Choke. I have Pro carburettor a 122.5 main nozzle (original) and the needle has only one position. And the mixture screw can not be set with running motor because no access possible / I have 2.5 revolutions outside of stop) I will order a petrol tap and restore the vacuum line, will make me smart how to check the ignition coils correctly and check valve games – more I can no longer think of what I can still do so that it runs nicely… floating positions I try to look at again and adjust if necessary and to exclude that he gets too much air sometimes with adhesive tape or similar to reduce the suction so that I can see if it then runs better (since to lean by too much Lu It can’t be that the flat sliders are opened properly by membrane and therefore they run to lean (I have traces of wear on one side of the flat slider and guess that the one depends and therefore not enough fuel is fed but with low to medium speed band there is enough power… If someone has a tip I would be VERY grateful! I’ll add pictures tonight.

Yamaha DT 125 10V BJ 82 Cooling System Slime
Hello my dear friends, I added a DT to my condition 2 months ago TÜV reports from 85 until now. Since I am dependent on my DT in winter I looked into my water tank once, I did not find a coolant but chocolate pudding [see videos and photos]. It does not squirt conspicuously only after accelerating it smokes a little [normal for a 2 bar]. Now I ask myself the question what can this be? Temperature problems I have never had before as well as It was still warm. What is that slime? Is it enough to rinse with distilled water? lg

Pixel error km display XV 1600
If you have a tip on the black bar (see photo , supposedly pixel error in the display ) in the kilometer display ? Would you like a workshop that gets that or a private contact . The tachograph otherwise works perfectly . Also the km display ! Only there is this permanently existing black bar available . Have received a variety of different statements : 1. This cannot be eliminated 2. If two tachos can be sent in , the kmStand of the now installed tachos can be read out and taken over into a used tacho. 3. With a used tacho the km-Stand cannot be changed. The displayed is fixed ! Thanks for your support !

Back to the original motorcycle?
The latest developments of vehicles such as the Kawasaki W 800 and the Honda CB 1100, inevitably lead to the conclusion that manufacturers are again more inclined towards the original motorcycle in terms of design. Also, the demand for these motorcycles is increasing. Do the manufacturers, breaking sales figures, perhaps partly due to the fact that they have increasingly relied on the streetfighter look, with many unloved ones? You don’t have many alternatives, either Streetfighter, Ssp or Chopp there is nothing in between except the new retro machines. I can only illuminate my position now, for me the new design represents an absolute no-go, which, not only from a financial point of view, allows me to go back more and more to the carts of older construction, in the choice of my motorcycles. Seats of new motorcycles increasingly sympathize with those of a scooter, so it sometimes seems to me that a new machine crosses the road. Interested in your opinion…

Lupo 3L suspension
Hello guys, I wanted to have an FK coilover suspension installed in my 3L lupo in the summer. I’ve often seen that in the parts reports of some brand suspensions it says that these are suitable for the 6X as well as the 6E. Can that be? I ask because I hear again and again that the ascent points on the 6E are different from the 6X, Is that true or can it be that one can build a suspension in the 6E then, which also fits in the 6X? Thank you for your help. Greeting, Jan

New here and a few questions about the Smart Media System and Tomtom at the Smart 453
Hey together, I’ve had the new Smart 453 as a proxy with Smart Media for a week. I’d have a few questions about this (operating instructions don’t give any answers here). 1. How do I get all Tomtom live services (only traffic is activated, but according to BA, all except radar should be activated) 2. What apps are there for the Smart Media system? (according to BA, which one is available) 3. When I put the SD card into the notebook, it shows that there is nothing on the map, but apparently the Navi has to practice r SD card and PC updated? Questions about questions VG Sebastian

Steady disk on China scooter broken
Good morning together dear community. Maybe you can help me. I drive a problem-loaded China scooter. While I have been lying down several times with torn drive belts and I have now apparently got this problem under control after the third coupling, has caught up with another problem in the meantime. I have installed a Variomatics, which has slightly increased the top speed. Now I heard a crash on my last ride. from the Variomatic lid and it flowed oil from it. On closer inspection I saw that the riser disc is broken and the simmering to the crankshaft is also over. Now to my questions: Since the housing on the crankshaft-simmering material has been sanded off, I have the fear that the new simmering will not hold. How do you see this? Can the damage have arisen due to the quality of the tuning accessory? Do you have a China scooter yourself and have with these similar Proble How do you appreciate the quality of the remanufactured spare parts that you can order from Amazon and co? I’m going to get some sinmering and an untuned variomatik. I’m looking forward to your answers.

Rex RS 460 drunk on the mountain and doesn’t start anymore
Hello, I bought a Rex RS 460 (approval 2010, KM stand at only 5000) and drove about 20km home. Everything was almost problem-free, at traffic lights he was always close to going out, but what you can compensate by light gas. On the same day I wanted to go to work. It started with the fact that the scooter had too much stationary gas after a cumbersome start in standing. So at the traffic light I would have started, I would not have braked. Other driving in the level was however OK. On the way there is a rather steep mountain, where the scooter could not keep the speed (i.e. from 45 to 10). The engine gave a kind of knocking noise of itself. After a short break it went again until the next steep mountain came. I then let it happen and the engine went completely out. It also did not start any more, neither with electric starter nor with kickstarter. No Mux. I wanted to ask which sources of interference I was the first to investigate sol Thank you for all the ideas!

Kymco Downtown Review 125 i
Here I would like to describe my first experiences with the Kymco Downtown 125 i. I got my new scooter on April 11, 2010. Now after a week and 500 km I want to describe my first experiences. Purchase price: 3450 Euro Processing: the processing seems to have succeeded well at first sight. When driving, no disturbing vibration or flaps can be noticed. All parts are well fastened and the gap mass is uniform. The scooter is in general in gu Many little things like the ignition lock, seat for 2 helmets or the racks are simply awesome. driving characteristics of the scooter is great. the curve behavior is great. Due to the adjustable spring legs also easily adjustable on the individual weight. One comes with the scooter quickly through any curve but can also cruise relaxed. The passage down rum is not so convincing but acceptable. But from 6000 u/min it pulls really well and reaches loud tacho on the car bahn 125 km/h. First conclusion In my opinion, the kymco convinces in price/performance at 100% and does not need to hide. All around a successful scooter that I can only recommend…
