Scorpio 225

[darkwolf]

alot of air passes over a motor at 100kph....but yes good point ive heard of lifans only getting from auckland to palmy on way to wellignton that blew big end bearings and it had only done like 500 k since new only 200 cc single 4 stroke that did about 120ish...

they just arnt designed to hold that speed....

this is why i ride kawasakis...they never made this kind of crap well maybe 20 years ago.

OK so you're talking a fairly large amount of time at 100KPH+ but what about 15 mins at a time? Would I be expecting to be causing damage due to heat? Also what RPM are they actually doing at 100KPH?

I believe Yamaha engines are damn reliable (according to some Yamaha riders).

So.....

Get a Scorpio

[sheldiez]

I drove my self and my scorpio on
4th gear.....13500 Rpm on 160 Kmh for about 30 sec
and End up like this...

Seems to be no prob for scorpio. I rode mine from Hamilton too woodville, Just out of palmy and back at 110 120 kmh

Hey el loco jalapeno,

When you brought your Yamaha Scorpio, did it come with a toolkit?

I just brought one and we couldn't find the toolkit under the seat....Maybe it was mistakingly taken out. Just want to know whether they are suppose to come with one.,

Mine came with a tool kit and I bought mine a few months ago. I would contact your dealer if I were you.

Yeah, I was gonna buy one anyway, but when the new one came out I was like "yuss!!"

[Petal05]

Only had mine for a few days, still learning but a good bike for lady's.
If I can just stop stalling it, I might get enough nerve to go for a decent ride. LOL

Ah yeah, my first day I tried to ride it out on the road and stalled just after pulling out of the drive... then I spent a few hours in a carpark just stopping and starting until I had that pretty much down, and after that I've only really stalled doing things like hill starts, or forgetting to clutch when I stop lol...

I honestly lost count of the times I stalled mine...pretty sure it was way over the 50 mark haha slow learner I guess, an it look me a few days 2 even get out of da driveway! but just get out there as much as possible an as often as possible, If I can get it, pretty sure any1 can!!

[Petal05]

I thought it was just me, I can't go back down through the gears yet, so just pull the clutch in and stop at intersections.......only problem is then I can't find first, don't Laugh!!!, I know where it is...but just have trouble getting it into first...any sugestions???????

[mj_scorpio]

um I'm no expert yet lol but I'd say take it slow and if its nice an quiet try slowin down quite early b4 the intersections and changin down as you go so by the time you get there your in about second ....
an also if your've stopped and not sure wot ur in just keep goin down til it won't go further, I also find if ya not sure if ur in first or second it helps to let da clutch out half way then pull it back in an try goin down again, and that definately wil get u into first.
oo an if I'm really not sure lol...i flick it up half way an see if the neutral light goes on and then u no exactly where u are

hope this doesn't confuse u more!!
