Model: Kymco Super 8 125
Part: Engine

To replace the piston on a Kymco Super 8 125, you need to loosen the screws securing the protective panels of the fairing, located at the front relative to the underseat compartment. Once these panels are removed, you will be able to locate the engine block underneath, which can be accessed by loosening the screws that secure the cylinder at its top. Once the cylinder is removed, you can locate the piston underneath, which must be detached from the connecting rod by removing the retaining ring; this will allow you to insert the new piston and reassemble all the removed components.

Changing the Oil and Filter on the Kawasaki Versys

Here’s how to change the oil and filter on the Kawasaki Versys. Warm up the engine for a few minutes, place the motorcycle on the centre stand, open the filler cap, and remove the drain plug underneath the engine. Place a catch basin under the oil sump, unscrew the drain plug, and let the oil drain out. Unscrew the oil filter and let all the old oil drain out. Install a new filter and tighten it with the appropriate tool. Pour half a glass of new oil into the filler cap and wait for it to flow out of the drain hole, after which replace the plug. Fill with approximately 1.8 litres of new oil, take it for a short ride to circulate the oil in the engine, stop the engine, and check the level through the designated window. Top up if necessary.
