What are people using to get the cast swingarm off the axle

One of my Vespa's does the same thing .......... made a tool for
getting it off ...... (specific for the Vespa)

Downtown 300 / Engine Bucking

« on: June 18, 2018, 02:37:29 PM »

Hello,

Have had nothing but praise for the 2016 Downtown 300i
.... until today .......... 2,100 miles
Rode the bike down to Walmart today (ran fine)
BUT the ride home engine started "missing" (bucking and sputtering)
at one point it stalled and had trouble starting ..... manage to limp on home
(could still get the RPM up too 5,500 while sputtering)
- certain the gas is good
- bike is still under waranty for another month (but pain to get to the dealer)
- warm day 91 f
- pulled seat and trunk off ....... all seems to connected (hose and wires)

ANY thoughts?

Thanks
Eric

Downtown 300 / Mirrors-Turn Signal wiring

« on: October 27, 2017, 01:58:26 PM »

Hello I have a US-spec Downtown 300i .....
Replaced mirrors and trying to wire up turn signals to inside the
headlamp lens location. I see the wires for the turn signals on the
BIKE side are already run in both connectors to the headlamps .......
however only the left side (orange wire) seems to flash. Right side
(blue or gray wire(?)) does not work with my 12 volt light probe.
(wires that ran to mirrors are unplugged)
Any advice?

Thanks,
Eric

Downtown 300 / movable drive face bushing direction

« on: September 02, 2017, 10:43:04 PM »

Hello,
Had my transmission apart today to try out Dr. Pulley sliders....
When I removed the movable drive face bushing I did not pay attention
to the direction (thought it fit either way)
On reassembly I noticed there is a sleeve (or machined that way) on the
inside of one half of the bushing.....
Can someone please tell me what side goes where (or does not matter)
