Title: This guy is surely joking.
Post by: PaulF on March 19, 2018, 01:59:40 AM

I don't think I would buy this or his other parts.

Somebody forgot that scooters aren't seaworthy.

I can't imagine that anyone would buy that, especially at the price. But the seller is up front about the condition.

For those who want a little patina on their metal?

I guess considering this exists http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/nordstrom-selling-pre-soiled-jeans-425-america-article-1.3100029 (http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/nordstrom-selling-pre-soiled-jeans-425-america-article-1.3100029)

There could be a similar market.

I lost one of those rubber caps that go on the floor of my Kymco and that's the reason I found his ebay shop.  For me to buy 4 of those rubbers from him will cost me $20 plus $40 postage and when that is converted to Aussie dollars that will be around $75.  Way too much.  If you do know of a cheap place to get one let me know as I have had no luck here yet.  (my dealer wasn't that interested in it)

Of course with the part number you should be able to find 'em any number of places.  They look to cross to other models and look a lot like the plugs on my SYM too.

Ook! Those things such a PITA! I've had to glue 'em in on every bike except the DT which does not have them.

I had one of those go missing early on with my Like. I went to my local ACE hardware and found round plastic plugs that fit perfectly. They are found in the drawers where they keep small parts and nuts/bolts. I replaced all four and have never lost another one. ;)

Those better than original and better than glue!

... Your dealer won't order in parts for you?

For me, the one benefit of having a local dealer is to be able to order in those sorts of small parts without paying the generally large shipping fees.

Have seen whole scooters with this skin condition parked across from the beach in Florida.

I'd still rather live in Florida and ride my scooter every day.
Wonder if that af-50 stuff would have prevented this?

Thanks for the reply guys.  I do remember that somewhere I have a box of car interior plugs and fittings stored somewhere so I might find something like that or look in the local hardware store for the plugs in the picture above.  I believe my Dealer thinks I am too fussy worrying about it so I haven't pushed him yet to order one.   I have seen a lot of secondhand Likes overhere with rusty mirror stems which I thought Kymco might have addressed that problem.
