Symba / Re: Changing Tire on Symba
« Last post by toocutetoscoot on December 20, 2020, 10:12:37 PM »I just bought a 2010 Symba and first on my list were oil change and rear tire change.I want to share tips for rear tire change .If you work alone..get a foot long 3-4 in thick board of wood for the center stand so the tire clears the rear...secure the bike to this wood with straps or hooks so it doesnt fall to its side.I also locked the front brake w/ a cord for safety.Fill a squirt bottle w/ water & dishsoap solution.use liberally as lube when dismounting tire.Use tirespoons an inch longer than the spokes so you can tuck this in the drum. I re- used the tube, but made sure the rim strips are ok.then i applied talcum powder& inflated a little to avoid pinching.Now is a good time to inspect cush dampers and brake shoes & grease axle.I did not care to balance(40mph?) but made sure the tire rotation mounted correctly.

Did you wind up going to the OEM size (130mm) for the clutch (PN 201502) or did you stick with the 125mm size?

« Last post by Thoppa on December 12, 2020, 10:44:54 PM »I guess it is the Hall-effect sensor switch - it either cannot trip itself enough times per second to get to the frequency of switches needed to exceed 60kmh, or it can, and the cable has a problem sending the pulsed signal, as you guessed.
But why. Is it not picking up the ferrous bolts correctly? Is it corroded inside? Is the cable coming out of the speed senor corroded?
The cable has a double rubber protection but tiny amounts of water can get inside and will collect at the base of the cable - its lowest point - where the cable comes down from the frame then bends back up again to the wheel speed sensor mount near the brake caliper. This copper cable can corrode making a poor connection. This bad connection creates an intermittent issue and/or increased resistance, either of which would prevent the cable transmitting the pulsed signal accurately/correctly.
So, if you have the tools, you could remove the rubber protections around the cable near its lowest bend and see if there is a problem with corroded copper.

« Last post by vintagegarage on December 12, 2020, 06:28:18 AM »I looked this morning on the Scooter Dynasty web site just now and don't see the shocks. Please send a link to what you see or provide more info.
I assume you are looking for new ones, but there is a pair of used ones on eBay, with a lot of rust on the chrome, but better than nothing if you have none right now. It is rare to find any parts for Symba on eBay, but a couple a weeks ago, someone took apart a pair of Symbas and posted the parts. The shocks are here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rear-shocks-suspension-SYM-SYMBA-110-JJ4/124464325854?hash=item1cfaa6e4de:g:4vcAAOSwDwJfxGie
New Symba parts have pretty much dried up in the US now.. same for Wowow parts in Asia.. It would be great if someone would post links here to any shops with new parts..
