Kymco Repair Manuals

Kymco, short for Kwang Yang Motor, was founded in 1963 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and began by making parts for other manufacturers, including Honda. The company assembled its first complete scooter in 1970 and began selling under its own KYMCO name in 1992, growing into Taiwan's largest scooter manufacturer and one of the biggest scooter producers in the world, with factories in several countries.

Kymco is often described as a specialist in scooters, and its range spans practical city models such as the Agility, Like and People, sporty machines such as the Super 8, and larger touring models including the Downtown and AK 550. The company has also built vehicles and engines for other major international brands, which says a great deal about the quality and scale of its manufacturing.

The workshop manuals in this section cover complete engine service and overhaul, transmission and variator work, brakes, suspension, fuel and cooling systems, full electrical and wiring diagrams, torque specifications, diagnostic procedures and the scheduled maintenance Kymco recommends for each model and market. Procedures follow the order used in a Kymco factory workshop, including the measurements, clearances and settings for the exact model and engine.

They are intended for DIY owners who service their own scooters, independent garages that work on Kymco models for customers, and anyone maintaining one of the many Kymco-built machines sold under other names around the world, who will find the same engineering underneath.
