Kymco People 250 Service and Repair Las Vegas
« on: May 02, 2018, 08:39:04 PM »
Anyone know a good shop/mechanic that does service and repairs on Kymco's? I know there is no Kymco dealer here anymore. Used to use a scooter Mechanic named Martin who used to work in North Las Vegas but he has left the shop there.

Looking to get some regular maintenance done and when I call some of the shops here they say things like "yeah I guess we can do that"..  Doesn't give me much confidence having someone work on a scooter that I will be going 50 mph on.

Thanks I guess my first question is regarding flush and fill of radiator. I know where the drain screw is but not where the air bleed screw is. I know you unscrew that while adding new coolant but can't find it. Saw a YouTube video on a 300 Kymco but not p250. I have heard about people not getting air bubbles out and having unit overheat.

There's no air bleed screw. You just burp it through the radiator cap.

I recommend doing that with the radiator not full so you don't have to worry about spilling coolant everywhere and can tip it more.

Ended up finding the Mechanic named Martin in Las Vegas. If anyone needs a Kymco savvy mechanic let me know. Just had him change the oil as well as change coolant to Kawasaki Aluma Cool.
Works great.
