I purchased a 2009 Yamaha Zuma 125 in April 2009, I love it!
I modified the headlight so both of them are on all the time, otherwise they look retarded. I don't like the seat since i have short legs and I don't like the place where you fill the gasoline- I can't help spilling it when I refill it.I think Yamaha need to put back the place to refill the gasoline back by the back seat like the Vino.
I'm 5'10", 230 lbs. I find the height OK. But I agree about the gas cap location and the lights. I would much rather have lights like the BW's (stacked). I sold my 2001 Zuma 49cc & bought the new 125 in Sept. 2009. I've had 2Honda motorcycles and 4 scooters over the years and the Zuma 125 is in a class by itself - this is absolutely the best scooter made in my opinion. It's quality is most impressive.
How do you rig it so both of the lights are on at the same time? If you do that, do you lose high-beam functionality?
You could purchase the instruction with 2 wires on EBay for under $20.00
