Downtown 300 / Re: Should sitt a screw here?
« on: June 10, 2026, 06:47:47 AM »
.This a spot where a technician puts a sensor/ feeler gauge to check your NOX values.

In your case there were a "blind" plug, which you most probably lost.

Then go for an inox imbus/headbolt in that size.

Pls see.pic,
 -take RH bolt out (the one which holds heatshield)
- try in the middle to plug this hole
- go to a shop
- buy smtg similar
-put an alu washer or two under this plug
Don't worry, nothing bad happens

Thanks 👍
I went to mechanic guy at work who gave an shorts M6 Bolt wita a Cooper washer, seems to work fine 😊
But now i see that my old bike needs new screws and Rubber around all exhaust system 🙃

Can you "FEEL" pressure from this hole?
I wonder if that is a place to fasten a testing device?
If you can feel that the exhaust is open here, please see your dealer for the missing screw.

Stig
Oh yes Stig, i feel pressure and fumes are coming out of there

To be clear - there are three screws - but one is missing?

Stig

Yes, i think it should be a screw in the middle hole.

I was drivning to work today and noticed louder sound from the exhaust than normal.
Air and Noice is coming from the middle hole in the front heat protection, where there are three stainless screws
What is suppose to be there?
Tried to post a Pic, but I possible from phone

Downtown 300 / Re: Downtown 200i/300i Steering head bearings replacement
« on: September 22, 2021, 07:11:58 PM »
I did it at my LBS 4 weeks ago and paid 2100sek =241usd
I think i paid 90usd for the original bearings.
i must say i prefer the old worn bearings, to much glide now :-)

Hi everyone!

Does anyone have links to perhaps aftermarket steering head bearings for the above bike? Mine's a downtown 200i 2012 model.

It has started to notch in the center, together with really wobbly steering when my hands loosen up. Also, every time I hit the front brake it knocks... pretty scary feeling like it's going to give way anytime.

I only intend to ride the bike for another 4-5 months and the dealer is expecting >$200 for the steering head bearing replacement. That's a little bit too much if I'm only going to be riding the bike for a short while.

Would anyone have links to maybe NTN bearings, or know the bearing size I should be looking for?

Thanks a lot @mousejunks  for your valuable info! Today I had the same issue, the difference here in Sweden is that we have to drive with headlight even during daytime.
Thou driving back home I turned them off, (no battery light 👍)
So I've contacted my dealer here in Stockholm and the did not have in stock, they needed 3 weeks! And 160usd 😳
So I've ordered one from your seller for 18usd.
Thanks again mate 👍👍

 God day mate!
If you are planning to buy, i myself bought 16g today, planning to grind away 0.5g to make them 15.5 as @adept did in this thread: http://www.kymcoforum.com/index.php?topic=4700.225
I have tried 14&15g 15 is ok but with a little bit of high rev (+500)

No worries  mate......I  joke around too much. (the "you" was me)
Yes, good plug.
They're not magic - but, for the $, a good addition to a scooter.

My main gripe about the Iridium spark plug is that....on a rainy old day - with wet flurries expected - and you're wanting to do something good  to your scooter  - you'll feel pretty dumb if you change your Iridium  plug.*
Dumb things'll probably last till the Rapture.
Stig

* and WHY do you even have a second Iridium plug? You'll be too old to remember where you put it- before you'll  ever need it!


Sorry Stig but i dont really understand what you mean?
If it was to me i have the orginal spark.
As a Swedish bloak i dont get everything in English 🤠😄

« on: September 08, 2017, 04:56:23 AM »
Thanks Karl
Then i know now that nothing serious will happen today on the way tork 😄
TV, I meant to get back on this sooner, sorry! The grease in the tube between the bearings is no big deal as long as the seales at both ends are operational. The one next to the roller bearing is the weak one but yours looks good.

Today ive changed my belt to a new, only 9000km and 24mm wide but its 4-5 years old so why not 😄 The rubber maybe old.
Also changed airfilter and it was a good time to do it, dirty.
Removed a lot of grease from the clutch between the 2 bearings, i need to try because im not sure there suppose to be grease there. (As the picture shows)
Changed back from 15g Pulleys to orginal, again 😂 (great acc with Pulley but to high rpm)
Take care out there
