still need the Vicodin, used sparingly, I have 2 left, the Pregabalin has to build up in your body a couple days
I   have been able to get back to my core exercises on a limited basis

Hello - I don't think any panels have to be removed in order to remove the fuel tank. Maybe removing the center panel will make things easier? This panel is easy enough to remove.
Remove the seat and the under-seat bucket.
Cyclepedia.com manual has pretty clear photos involving the removal procedure of the fuel tank.
If you plan to keep your LIKE200i for a length of time - might be a good investment. It has been for me these past 13 yrs.

I unfastened the center cowling, I felt I needed to do the to get to a couple of bolts holding the tank in at the rear. It's now out and soaking. Thankfully there's only a little varnish and no rust. I'll put it back together tomorrow and test it out. The filter attached to the pump has a couple parts covered in varnish but I'm sure that'll clean off. Having an in-line filter should help a bit as well. She's a little old but still looks pretty good. I'll take a picture and post it once she's back together.

aren't these usually checked with the dipstick pushed in but not screwed in? I think that is a Honda thing from long ago..and these scoot engines continue it to this day.

Yes, manual should clearly state.
Piaggio - screw it in. Kymco - don't screw it in. At least my models.
BYW: i am amazed at the accuracy of the question/answer google app on my phone.

few more pics...my mess, the new, coated rotors (helps with the rust we get) and wheel pic

New to me!
So the rotors will never wear down?
A different feel to the brake pedal?

I'm impressed, Hawk.
The closer I get to joining the Octogenarian Club - the less I feel like crawling around on the garage floor!
Stig

yes, hope you're feeling better!
