Title: My LIKE200iLX hasn't started in a month
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on March 31, 2022, 08:16:59 PM

This morning I rolled it out for a dawn ride.
Turned the 🔑 on, pulled the brake, touched the starter button.....

.....well, LIKE200i owners know what happened next!

Instantaneous start.

boy, a month with my S200 not starting and it will take quite a few revolutions to get the ol' carb going!  My S200 hasn't ran since last Fall...and it's been in pieces since early Feb.

Pulling the motor out of the scoot was easy...and disassembling it was easy....it's the reassembly and reinstalling that I'm a little fuzzy on. I did take notes and pictures of the process..but, dang...there are lots of parts spread out that need to be put back together...

When I'm doing something I think "no problem, I'll remember all of it".....and then a few weeks or months later I'm asking "how does this work, again?"

(relevant to thread because our engines are identical except for the fuel delivery system)
