Parts arrived from France 4 days after order, everything OEM. That's faster than most stateside sellers. In re-assembly I found that the side stand switch does not include the cable that ties into the chassis harness (looked like it was all one piece) but the good news is it is a common part...

As I've said before I've always felt the bike leaned too far over when on the side stand. I saw it was again leaning too far and decided to put it on the lift, pull the body panels and study the problem rather than just replace the bent and broken bolts again. I've pinched a nerve in my neck...

How many miles on the scoot, have you removed the tupperware and checked the belt? Have you checked the final drive chain (sits in an oil bath on the left side of the scoot when you're behind it) There are factory spacers that need to be changed occasionally under the chain to keep proper...

I searched for but couldn't find the original post I read a few years ago about changing the battery in the TPS sensor. When I purchased the scooter it had the tires changed by "someone on Facebook and now the front pressure doesn't read ", when I changed the tires myself after wearing out the...

What did you find? Are you back on the road?

Judging from his user name I would guess Charleston, South Carolina. His profile does show SC.

I weighed the set in my 2013 GT, 33 gr, the 30 gr Dr Pulley will help off the line acceleration without much loss of top speed, the biggest benefit of the Dr Pulley is the shape. The wedge shape and sliding allows the variator to get "smaller" (ramp of the wedge allows the two sides of the...

The fork locks are easily snapped off, I've seen video of thieves standing over the seat and grab the handle bars and twist hard left and right to either break the lock or snap the receiver for the lock. Two or three practiced snaps and the forks are free. Anything that takes a thief longer to...

K&N makes a filter designed to be cleaned and re-used, the original filter is paper media and can only be blown clean(er) with compressed air. There may be other filters out there that are designed to clean and re-use but I'm not aware of them. Usual hint is fine wire screen, cotton gauze type...

There is a chain, it's in an oil bath on the left side of the bike, at 2500 miles it shouldn't need an adjuster guide. Should probably check the lube level first, if it's good drain the lube and check chain tension, roll the chain around and see if sprockets are loose and that chain is moving as...

I think so, you'll need communication to the bikes computer to relearn the TPS sensors, riding for a few minutes should "shake awake" the TPS sensors, leave it running and connect the OBD then try your Moto app. I KNOW that the GS-911 can relearn or have the ID entered, from what you've said...

Oops, see reply to 9-1-1 on GS911....

You've cleared the memory for the TPM sensors, the EASIEST way is to "re-learn" the sensors, you'll need a TPM sensor tool that will "activate" the sensor without having to ride the bike (you might be able to ride the bike, wake up the sensors, park and leave the bike running and have the OBD...

I pulled my original rollers and weighed them, 7 of the 8 weighed 33gr, the 8th weighed 32gr, not so much the weight as the shape, the wedge shape of the Dr Pulley allow them to get closer to the center and compress the pulley a little more and the outer wedge allows the slide to move farther...

Yes, there isn't much weight on the lumber, you're just "tilting the bike" not lifting it, you'll want to stop well before you start lifting the centerstand.
