Title: Moving the service manuals to the Kymco Links thread??
Post by: zombie on May 02, 2014, 09:57:26 AM: Do any of you all think it may be a good idea to move all the manuals we can find that are scattered about to the Kymco Links thread?
That Links to Manuals thread is constantly getting lost, and is soooooo full of chit chat it is hard to find what is in there. Plus all the manuals that are just shotgunned here, and there.

It is more often that not a first time poster is looking for a manual. Just a thought, and I dont mind digging around to get it going... I wanted to see what you all thought or if there is a better way to manage them.
As always... :-*

We might also suggest to the almighty administrator of the site to create a separate category just for manual info, so people know just where to look from the main page.

But, I'm probably over-thinking the issue. :)

Could be organized something like this.
"Manuals" would be a sub-forum inside of "Technical | How To"
Each scooter thread would include links to both Owners and Service Manuals.

KymcoForum.com ï¿½ General ï¿½ Technical | How To ï¿½ Manuals ï¿½ Xciting 700i
KymcoForum.com ï¿½ General ï¿½ Technical | How To ï¿½ Manuals ï¿½ Xciting 500
KymcoForum.com ï¿½ General ï¿½ Technical | How To ï¿½ Manuals ï¿½ Downtown 300
Etc, etc, etc

Post by: zombie on May 02, 2014, 04:51:31 PM: DM, I was just thinking of copy/paste the links. I can delete my own nonsense but I wasn't thinking that far.
I agree it would save a TON of time for finding them.

And yes, You sir. The shiny headed fella in the front row. Your plan is brilliance at its pinnacle. When can you get started?

Seriously tho... I just saw the Kymco Links sticky was all but empty, and thought why not.
Maybe I'll start moving the links via copy / paste to get them in one place. If something more happens ie: Alla Kreps's suggestion at least we will have a running start.

I copied all the links to the Kymco Links sticky. If anyone asks... Axy had a gun to my head, and made me do it.
That's MY story, and I'm sticking to it
