foggy1 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I have and am very happy with my 6 year old 34000 Kms Honda Zoomer. The last year she has lost a little power and making the last up hill road to my house very frustrating and nearly not able. I didn’t want to change to a bigger bike as she suits all I need it for. Always oil changed, new plug, new air filter, injector additive used etc. Is there anything else I’m missing or can try to get the same power up hill ability I was having the first years. thank you in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 A top-end rebuild (rings, valves) may be in order, she's been a goodly distance for a small bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritManToo Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 It's usually a blocked air filter. Often the garage say they changed it, but don't. Try having it fixed at a different garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the jungle Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Worn out drive belt and/or centrifugal clutch is my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I'd go for drive belt too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 If the engine is revving but lack of drive, it is the belt. Get a local shop to put some 12 g weights in the variator instead of the 14 g standard one. Or if you can DIY https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Pulley-Sliding-Roller-Weights/dp/B00VUXF8W6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johng Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 So they changed a lot but I suppose it was quite cheap to do it all ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
