Good afternoon all and Happy Thanksgiving!

Yes, I am a new KYMCO ATV and UTV dealer in Russellville Arkansas.  I have worked on atvs and motorcycles for longer than I care to admit on here but will honestly admit I am new to the KYMCO brand.  I tried to do my homework before signing on to become a dealer and so far am quite pleased with what I see and know.  I know that I am not a walking encyclopedia on Kymco units and will most likely be picking your brains (owners) for information frequently.  I feel there is no better training than to talk with people who actually USE what I will be working on. My family rides pretty much anything with handlebars and we have never been known back up from a good mud hole, in fact I tried out the front differential lock this afternoon on our UXV700i LE demo.  It worked as designed and I was satisfied.

I do already have a few questions and am having a little difficulty finding solutions going through the "dealer channel".  I understand CVT transmissions but am yet to disassemble a KYMCO atv cvt.  The little Mongoose 90 and the little MXU 150 seem to have a limiter in the cvt to keep the clutch discs from opening up all the way which in turn limits their top end speed.  I have read there is a "kit" to allow the units to reach some more of the potential.  I'm all ears as to how to locate this "kit".

Also, I would like comments from owners about mods that have been successfully made.

AND…… Russellville is just South and North of some FINE riding areas.  While out riding today we ran into a group of folks from Iowa who were here riding and they say they try to make it down here several times a year and they ride out West as well.  They were all on POLARIS Razr 1000s.  They didn't go anywhere I didn't go, they just went there faster!

Drop me a line if you have the time, I would like to hear what you have to say, good AND bad. Later
