Title: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP/ UPGRADE
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 01, 2010, 05:55:10 PM: HEY ALL, I WAS JUST WONDERING WHO SELL GREAT PARTS FOR OUR KYMCO SCOOTERS ON LINE----I WOULD LIKE A SPARK PLUG,AIR/FUEL FILTER,BRAKES(FRONT/REAR ARE DISK) FOR MY 2003 SUPER 9----IF I MISS ANYTHING PLEASE LET ME KNOW,I CHECK ON TUNING TAGS(I SEE OTHER SITES AWAYS TALK ABOUT JETS-CARBS-EXHAUST AND SO ON), ( I AM DOING A REGULAR TUNE-UP)THANKS

Post by: Shaka on May 01, 2010, 09:51:51 PM: Stadium Yamaha has the best price on OEM parts I know of.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 01, 2010, 09:55:32 PM: http://www.stadiumyamaha.com/pages/parts/viewbybrand/default.aspx (http://www.stadiumyamaha.com/pages/parts/viewbybrand/default.aspx) That's my favorite store for OEM parts. I would look at the rollers/belt/contra, and clutch springs at the same time. I do mine once a year... need them or not. You may also find new clutch shoes are needed, as I doubt anyone has changed them. All those extras won't add up to 75 more bucks.

Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 01, 2010, 10:35:51 PM: BELTS AND ROLLERS I'V HEARD OF BUT (CONTRAS--WHATS THAT)
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 01, 2010, 11:54:09 PM: Stands for contrast spring. It is the large spring between the torque driver and clutch.

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: blue on May 02, 2010, 02:01:03 AM: you can try sliders instead of rollers. I have not tryed yet but I here they are great.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 02, 2010, 02:06:22 AM: Another good suggestion! If you don't want to get into the guts, you can ask for a quote to install a much better cvt set-up. That's the contra who-izts, and stuff. If you love it now You will be arrested for what you feel after tuning the cvt.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 02, 2010, 02:38:22 PM: 50 MPH IS THE TOP SPEED FOR THESE SCOOTERS WITH BOSS/DE-RESTRICT AS FAR AS I KNOW---OTHER THEN INTAKE/EXHAUST CHANGE I CAN NOT GET NO MORE SPEED---I THINK ONE OF YOU GUY TOLD ME THAT.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 02, 2010, 03:27:52 PM: Tuning the cvt will get you to top end much quicker. You may even get some easy wheelies out of it. The idea is to get higher rpm's w/ lighter rollers, and delaying the time for the clutch to lock up. Even if you kept all the stock components, I would suggest changing them at least once a year as these are all parts that wear out w/ use.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 02, 2010, 03:34:53 PM: I DON'T KNOW IF A SCOOTER CAN WHEELIE BUT I WILL LOOK INTO THE PARTS---IS THERE A CERTAIN KIT THAT HAS EVERYTHING THAT I NEED FOR THE CVT CHANGE.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 02, 2010, 04:00:22 PM: Stadium can help you out there too. Just order a set of rollers/sliders (your choice), and ask for a clutch fly spring kit. I think I saw you have 7.5gr. now? w/ all else being stock the 7.5 sliders, and the clutch springs may be the ticket for you. I think I read that you didn't like the 7gr. as they revved too high fro you! The sliders are supposed to respond smoother, and the clutch will allow the engine to rev into the power band before trying to roll. It takes some getting used to but the difference is nite/day.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 02, 2010, 04:17:44 PM: NOT ME, MY CVT IS FULLY STOCK SO WHAYEVER STOCK IS I HAVE BUT I DO NOTICE THAT WHEN I TAKE OFF I TURN THE THROTTLE AT LEAST 1/4 BEFOR THE CVT GRAB TO TAKE OFF
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 02, 2010, 04:24:09 PM: The stock rollers are 8gr. so the 7's are good, the 6's are better. My opinion. I have to hit 1/2-3/4 throttle to lock up the clutch, but have gotten used to it. Lighter rollers/stiffer springs will increase the rpm's both overall, and at take off. If that is not what you want then just ask for all the OEM replacements, and you will be just as good as new.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 02, 2010, 09:20:49 PM: OK GREAT I'LL DO A LITTLE CHANGE, LETS SEE WHAT STADIUM HAS

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Hoolander2 on May 03, 2010, 02:27:09 AM: From Dr. Pulley, "HiT Clutch" user manual:

2.
Powerful takeoff but
no riding comfort.
Engaged rev too high. Replace with softer clutch spring.
Actuation timing too early. Replace with harder pillow spring.
3.
Powerful takeoff but having
vibration at initial stage
Engaged rev too low. Replace with harder clutch spring.
Belt slippage** happened in the
front driving pulley. Replace with heavier roller.
Belt slippage happened in the rear
driven pulley. 4. Replace with harder torque spring.
Smooth takeoff but solid
engagement not obvious
Belt slippage happened in the
pulley. Replace with a new belt.
* It’s dangerous to actuate the throttle fully and suddenly when softer pillow spring and harder clutch spring are used at
the same time, as the vehicle might jump into the air abruptly to cause serious damage or injury.
** The belt slippage can happen in the pulley due to the solid engagement and less slippage with the clutch bell. The
abnormal surface temperature of pulley can be taken as checkpoint to see whether the belt slippage exists.

So apparently it IS possible to wheelie one. :D

Post by: Shaka on May 03, 2010, 04:00:14 AM: I can vouch for that! ;D
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 03, 2010, 04:05:51 AM: Over the past few weeks I have been loosing top end, and take off power. I started to foul plugs in 2-3 days. I figured it must be a loose jet so I pulled the carb/cleaned it w/ no obvious problem. On a hunch I pulled the freshly cleaned air filter, and A LA WA... In the air, almost on my a$$. I forgot how much it has on the bottom.

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 03, 2010, 11:35:23 AM: I'm pretty sure it is a section for tuning the cvt taken from a Dr. Pulley install guide.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Hoolander2 on May 03, 2010, 04:19:08 PM: Yep, that's what it is. I just thought it was funny how they worded the part about jumping into the air!!! ;D You know, since you had wondered about wheelies. Ha!

I emailed Dr. Pulley (actually it's called Unionmaterial.com) a couple weeks ago inquiring about sliders and they sent me a lot of stuff about their sliders and clutches. Apparently you can still get sliders directly from them. They offered me a deal for a HiT clutch for about $400. They'd throw in a set of sliders for free.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 03, 2010, 05:53:33 PM: That's not too bad of a deal! The Malossi Delta for your scoot is around 390. alone. If they throw in 40 bucks worth of sliders all the better.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 03, 2010, 10:46:49 PM: I've heard great things about the Dr. Pulley clutches as well!

Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 03, 2010, 11:42:20 PM: I SEE A LOT CAN BE DONE WITH THESE SCOOTER BUT AROUND 50 MPH IS GREAT FOR JUST A BOSS DRIVE CHANGE AND TO BE TRUTHFUL IT CAN REACH THAT WITHOUT A CDI DERESTRICTION

Post by: zombie on May 07, 2010, 06:36:08 AM: Go for it! It is just a scoot. The hotter the spark you can get the more fuel you can burn. The more fuel= the more air you need. Get a good coil, and then get an air filter/jets. The coil should not cost more than $20.00 delivered. CAN THAT BE PUT ON A STOCK SET-UP (NO JET OR BIG CARB KIT) NO!

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 07, 2010, 06:46:36 PM: The idle mixture adjusting screw is some times called an air screw. You turn it either way in 1/4 turn increments. You want to get the best/highest rpm's on the adjustment. Once you get it to its peak, turn it 1/4 turn counter clockwise. that will be the final setting. you can then use the idle speed screw to get the idle rpm's where you need them. Always have a clean air filter before adjusting the mix.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 07, 2010, 11:39:55 PM: NO I'M LOOKING TO INCREASE MY IDLE TO 1800-2000 RPM AND ALSO WHY PEAK IT THEN TURN IT 1/4 WAY COUNTER CLOCKWISE
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 08, 2010, 12:06:46 AM: You turn it back to be on the safe side. That 1/4 turn makes it slightly richer. At peak rpm with the mix screw you are actually a little lean.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: 0BARK4322 on May 08, 2010, 01:26:26 AM: OK, GREAT----I WILL ORDER THE VARAITOR KIT,BELT,KN FILTER,SPARK AND SHOULD I CHANGE JUST THE MAIN JET TO 95, I THINK I HAVE A 92 STOCK.
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: zombie on May 08, 2010, 03:17:22 AM: You might wan to get a KIT of jets. Say 95-106. There is no real way to predict what you may need. $20.00 on jets is not too bad, and it is always better to be safe than LEAN.

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 08, 2010, 11:47:41 PM: OBARK, the idle speed screw is not the "barrel adjuster" up on the throttle. I think you may be referring to that. That is to take the free play out of the throttle. The idle speed screw is usually the larger center screw on the carb. It sticks into the carb right in the middle where the slide is. It actually sets how far the slide can close or move down. The idle mixture screw will be smaller and on the downstream side of the idle speed screw. A good starting point for both screws is typically 1.5-2 turns out. First set the idle speed, then fine tune for max rpm with the mix screw. Then turn the mix screw 1/8 turn back out to richen it a tad more. You may then have to re-adjust the idle speed screw to lower the rpm's back down to where the wheel doesn't turn on the center stand. Once the carb is set you can check the throttle grip for free play and adjust it with the barrel adjusted on the handle bar. The service manual will state the free play. It's usually about 2mm.

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 09, 2010, 12:44:46 AM: The air screw only effects the idle circuit, so no. You will have to change your main jet if you put on a K&N.

WHICH SCREW AND ALSO WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE JASIL SV 1 VARIATOR KIT (MHR-SCOOTER HOSPITAL) $95--LOWER PICTURE
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 11, 2010, 01:12:36 AM: Here's your carb pic with the screws labeled. I've heard decent things about the Jasil Variator, but I've never actually used one. It does look nice though! Moped Hospital has also been pretty good to deal with. Steve is extremely knowledgeable. Be aware that they will push their products over the Malossi, but I that's because that is what they sell. Remember you get what you pay for. They compare it to the Malossi, but I'm sure there is a reason for that! ;)

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP
Post by: Shaka on May 12, 2010, 01:02:11 AM: It definitely does free up a lot of room! I don't actually have that air filter set-up now. Now I have a big intake manifold and a snorkel on the air filter. The carb now sits back closer to the rear shock, and the air filter is extended back and to the outside of the shock.

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP/ UPGRADE
Post by: wordslinger on June 13, 2010, 02:22:39 AM: ..because in my state, when you get a dwi, you can still operate a less than 50 cc 2-wheeled vehicle without a driver license...

..it kinda grew from that point, to where i am now...

..i can get a license, but...so far, i haven't needed one...

..not to mention the $250 a month insurance....

..don't need that......
Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP/ UPGRADE
Post by: SUPER 9 MANN on June 13, 2010, 02:27:38 AM: Ok, you have a valid reason, i guess i does save on insurance cost and with a dwi you still have to get around.

Title: Re: TIME FOR A BASIC TUNE-UP/ UPGRADE
Post by: zombie on June 15, 2010, 04:36:11 AM: I use ONLY synthetics in EVERY engine I own. IT WORKS BETTER! The only failure I have had is due to using "stock brand" 2t oil, and I burned a hole in my piston dome. I use Golden Spectro 2t. These oils leave less carbon, and allow the engine to run cooler (few degrees) so they do make a difference. ANYONE that says otherwise is just WRONG!

..LED lighting takes very small amounts of current...

..depending on how many you use, a 1/5 - 1 amp fuse will be enough...

..it's easy, and you don't have to worry about screwing up any of your scoots other wiring...

..you can also light them when the scoot isn't running...
