Yes, thank you and him!

Recently there were some software updates to M3 tool. I upgraded my M3 tool from v1.47 to V24.03.05 and on my 2011 Kymco Downtown 300i: 1. I can't no longer communicate with ABS 8M module - communication error. 2. TPS Reset function is gone - it wasn't working in my case anyway. Good thing that I can downgrade back to 1.47.

The ham radio guys are real big on "upgrades" for the firmware on these modern software defined rigs. They come away, bunches of them, after turning their once working radios into "bricks!" Fortunately, many are able to do what you did and return to the previous version (that worked!).

Oh, that wheel damage is just rotten! I still fume about a local Honda shop kept a farmer friend's 4-wheeler for over a MONTH for a radiator fan problem. Changed the spark plug, charged him over a hundred bucks and the fan still did not work!

I have ranted on this forum loud and long about AMERICAN repair shops and mechanics (Ruffus and others here are NOT included since Euro and Asian techs are way ahead!) have the swagger and nothing else. Not all but it seems most.

Do yer own work as much as possible. Tires and brakes on most anything suck. Just gather your skirts and tough it out. You will know then who and how the dents and scratches got there. Then you won't hate some poor, witless mouth breather for being a clod.

Aw, heck, Randy! So sad to hear this! However, I am certain he is no longer "autistic" and is in better company now.

Cheaper than JB Weld, but better?
Good to know in pinch, though.

Now, I would not go that far! JB Weld is pretty hard stuff to beat. Even that two-part epoxy in the paired syringes work nicely if done carefully

It's the plastic panel and simple versitility of this scheme that is impressive. Never seen it before although many others already knew!

Neil, some of us here know each other on other forums as well so if this one crashes we can still contact each other.  Several of us are on the Adventure Rider forum.  Crossbolt asked what happened to this forum there.  Several other people responded and one of them remembered that Stig was on the Modern Vespa Forum under a different name.  I joined that forum and contacted him to ask about this forum.

Just something to think about if this forum ever crashes again.  Those of us on ADV have the same user names there as on this forum.

Took the very words out of my mind! Yes, there may be some of that "out of my mind" involved! Har, har!

Oh! Oh! Try this: when it starts crapola run, open gas cap. This is full EFI, right? It should recover to normal, smooth and willing power instantly once cap is open.

Try soon; report here sooner!
