Go Polaris! Go Harley! You don't have to hate one to love the other. I agree, nothing sounds like a Harley..I love how they sound.

I wonder if that little gap would cause air to be pulled in the bowl as you accelerate under load? Alleyoop would know about this.

CVT, Variator weights and belt ...is this inside the engine? I have a drive chain with a forward reverse looking transmission operated by a cable. Sorry...this is all new to me. I build old school choppers. bought this for my kid and on a learning curve. Gues I should check the rubber. Being a new carb I didn't want to void warranty by opening it up, but, hell I understand carbs and it was cheap enough so .... One question I have is did they put different mains in different carbs and would it be unsual for my main to be to small? I mean were different mains in different applications of what looks like the same carb? Cvt is the transmission: continuously variable transmission

You said it ran good for an hour. So, it seems like the jets are ok. Something went wrong. Definitely follow Alleyoops advice.

Check to see if the carb bowl drain screw is loose. That's where the leak might be coming from. If that is not the cause of the bogging, then I would check for air leaks around your intake. I don't know what kind of filter you have, but see if there are cracks etc around it. Check all your vacuum lines for leaks and if they are connected.

It looks great Jim. The only thing that that stuck out to me was the wording "If you don't see the Model you are looking for or you need parts, please contact Jim at 715-825-3710 or email rapidrep@hotmail.com." I first thought it was a play on words about the girl on the scoot. Maybe it's just me though. The link does not work for the Pdi, but that may be because you are not done yet.

That's too bad. I would imagine the Like 200 is an all around, go anywhere machine. I hope it was at least profitable parting with it. Yah, it was a great litte scoot. Very dependable, and I got a very fair price.

I had to sell my Kymco Like 200i because I just have too many to register and insure. I tell ya, it feels like a bad breakup. I was pretty sad letting it go. Isn't that funny, that we give our machines a personality.

I don't understand why the place you bought it from cant help you???
I was looking around and it looks like it a gy6 150cc, which are very common.
But, look up mainepeace/Greg he owns a shop, or parts -for - scooters and they can tell you what you need and most likely will be able to get you one.
