Title: Air loss front tire and wheel
Post by: john grinsel on January 11, 2020, 04:13:49 PM

My 2019 XTown 300i has had air loss front wheel---severe for the past 2 weeks or so------visual checked tire, soap bubble test on both tire and 90 degree valve stem, found loss may have been from---valve cap or valve core-----changed cap and tightened core----problem seems to be fixed----cap and core may not have been matching.   I had changed it a couple of weeks ago.

I just went through the exact same drill on my Kymco Kiwi - it was a small bit of lint in the valve core.  An easy fix that took me half the day :-)
