Daelim 250 S3 Advance

Very nice, smart looking machine, especially in white, Phil

Is that a flipfront lid that doesn't fit?

Re GN2s question from another Daelim thread. I wanted my answer and these photos on my main Daelim thread.

My medium full face flip fits inside for width but the seat will not close.
my LS2 FF393 Convert will not fit for width due to the helmet chin guard construction. I have tried all combinations and several helmets and only my visored open face fits fully.

Latest fuel fill up 89.6 mpg, best so far even after regularly opening her up to 7k revs max and a one off clock indicated 140kph with still some throttle left.

Mpg is improving even more than I anticipated with yesterdays fill up at an astonishing 98.0, giving a current average of 90.3

That's excellent, it's almost running on fresh air....

That's stunning performance and economy!

My SYM GTS300 had exactly the same issue with the helmet not fitting underneath, and it's not a large helmet either.
What I did is used a Fein Multitool (Bosch also do them!) to cut a hole in the plastic and slipped in some black vinyl to disguise it. The Pillion comfort is unaffected and my lid just fits in fine now - it's a win-win.
Find out where it needs cutting with blobs of Blutak or plasticine.

When I remember (and look at the bike again!) I'll post of a picture.

Nice looking machine, I'm trying to source one at the moment.....I take it that the bike is still running well?

The nearest dealer to me is in King Lynn and I spoke to them yesterday but they seemed vague about colours and general information about the scoot, can anyone recommend a good dealer?

Over 1100 happy trouble free miles. I'm to believe the current colours are white, black and my colour metallic grey.
This forum is the place for most info, just ask.

GT's of Plymouth have a used but nearly new S3 Advance in black, in their showroom, nestled amongst their newly appointed Kymco franchise scoots.

It's been there for a month or so at £2999.

Thanks for the information, I decided to go with the safe bet and bought a ultra low mileage Honda 2013 ex demo Forza instead due to concerns about support and service.

My local Honda dealer is only a mile down the road which is just as well as the bike started leaking oil / water onto my driveway one week into my ownership... hopefully I should get it back next week.....
