KYMCO K-Pipe 125

[chop311]

I picked up my first bike a few weeks ago, a KYMCO Kpipe 125. It's a lot of fun, incredibly slow but its perfect for what i am using it for. I don't trust the only certified dealer in the area (where i bought it) and want to maintain it myself if possible. I live in a 2 br apartment so i have no garage and no tools, but am willing to invest in some. Was wondering if anyone else owns this bike since there is no content anywhere on the internet on "how to's".

Thanks

150 other people own one, with an increasing number being chucked in the back of a shed and forgotten about.

Haynes do generic manuals for "Chinese, Taiwanese and Korean" 125cc Motorcycles, and another for scooters. Given your semi-auto 4 speed box, I don't know which one would be the best fit for your bike. Either one will provide basic advice on common tasks like oil and filter changes, chain tension and brake servicing.

However, you can pick most of it up from YouTube. Identifying the various components and fasteners is the hurdle, but the sooner you get started, the sooner you'll figure it out.

A basic socket set (3/8") and some combination spanners will get you going. No need to spend a lot up front.
