If you're replacing the spark plug, you should upgrade to an NGK CR7EIX. As discussed in numerous postings in this group, the Iridium plug will give you...
I stand corrected as I now see the heater mentioned in all Yamaha lists of Vino features. Looking at parts fiche of carb and Yamaha service manual I couldn't...
That's great to know. There will be days here in Ontario when it's too snowy or just too cold to head out but I plan to start the Vino in the garage and let it...
It actually, really, really does have a carb heater; and it works well on cool/cold days if you wait about 30 seconds with the ignition on. I have returned...
There is no heating circuit in the carb. The electrical wires you probably see are for the auto choke (electrically activated). Any heater + gasoline would =...
What Chris said operates with the electric starter too. There is a heating circuit in the carb which starts when the ignition is set to on. It takes about 30...
Thank you all for your help. You all make great sense and, sure enough, when I took my time and followed your instructions the kickstart worked perfectly first...
I would also add that if the scoot has been sitting for a while, it seems to help to kick start or electric start briefly (with the throttle closed) and then...
Squeeze the left handbrake while you're pumping. It has been said (and the wiring diagram suggests) that the scoot will start using the kickstarter without...
Thank you very much. I will give it another shot. There may be something to the note that if the scoot is cold give it no gas at all. With my Vespa, I would...
My Vino kicks over so easy. Like slicing hot butter. Now if your bike is hard to start with elec start button then you have to expect the same hard starting by...
The dreaded kickstart. I got my Vino late this summer and I love it. My previous scooter was a Vespa, an older model when you still changed gears and had no...
Should be less than $10 at any dealer. You can find it online for $5-$6 but then add shipping and probably more than your local dealer. Yamaha P/N is...
Hi everyone, So I need to replace my spark plug cap (long story) and was wondering where I might find one (either locally or online). I tried AutoZone/Advance,...
I am 5'2" and 120 lbs and have no trouble putting the Vino on the center stand. Just put your left hand on the left handlebar and your right on the rear...
Actually you shouldn't be trying to pull it back on the stand. Use your hands, left on handlegrip and right on rear bar to stabilize the bike only. Getting it...
I'm 5' 2" and I just use both the handle bars to pull it back on the center stand. At first it took me 3-4 tries before I could do it but now I can almost...
Ok, Here's the secret. Make sure that the scoot is vertical and not leaning toward you, so the 2 extensions on the bottom of the center stand are on the...
Here's how I do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQ2o3iv3ANE Chris Baum ... From: "Robert Hacker" <rhacker1@...> To: <Vino125@yahoogroups.com> Sent:...
Start with the scoot on the side stand and slowly center it as you go. Steady your weight on your left leg, and place your right foot on the center stand. As...
Where do I place my hands when pulling the scoot onto its center stand? What I've been doing is to hold onto the left handlebar with my left hand while pulling...
Gwen, That basket is not an exact fit for the Vino 125. However there have been some that have modified it by cutting and changing the mounting and made it...
Gwen, I found this: http://www.scooterwest.com/items/?_pageCCS=t#page=/item_details/Vino-inside-leg-shield-tray/647 Doesn't seem to been better than your find...
So I originally decided I really wanted to buy a scooter after riding a Yamaha Fino while in Thailand. I'm assuming [correct me if I'm wrong] that this is the...
David you may be correct. The warranty that I got with my Yamaha 1300 is called a YES warranty and I bought the cycle used on Craigs list. The original owner...
