turn the ingnition key left

Chances are it is a grounded kill switch on the handlebars or a side-stand / center-stand kill switch that has gone bad or is out of position.
Stick in a new spark plug also.

What do you mean by wont turn over? is the engine spinning over and not starting or is it doing nothing when start button is pushed?

No it wont fit properly even the local mechanic says it will. If you fix without changing the Rim then you will find problems while riding.

CHECK YOU HAVE A GOOD EARTH TO THE COIL AND CHECK THE PLUG?

Did you warm up your Kymco during winter? If not then your first priority is to have your battery professionaly measured for cranking power capacity or get a new one..

did you still have help send me and e-mail @ [email protected]

the controls and the front suspension see if it does not make noise and finaly the rear chain link see if its not bent

A service manual is a valuable tool with an aging bike. I suggest the dealer/mfr. or Clymer books. In the meantime, go to the library reference section...646 stacks should have what you need.

anyone who needs owner manuel or workshop manuel (complete parts and structore guide) please email me at [email protected]

Cold air is denser and you'll get more air in the bike and the engine compensates with more fuel. It's cold as hell at 20F outside but damn does the bike run crisp!,,

The First thing you have to NOT DO is try to start it if it has been sitting for any long duration of time 6 months or more second, you have to remove the gas tank, drain the contents, into a can you can see in, look for a dark brown colored corpusal, in the gas, if there is some, that is an indication, that your carbs need to come apart, unless you are a seasoned mechanic, you will have to remove the carb, take the bowl off, of course you will look for the brown couloured substance again, clean the bowl,remove the pin, holding the float in placebeing carfule to secure the needle valve in its proper place after cleaning it thouroughly, remove the jet, using a tiny bit, you reem the jet hole center, taking care not to bore it out, the you run the bit in the jet hole, cleaning any debri that may be there, use carb cleaner and keep spraying it in all in puts and out puts the carb may have, then if you put your mouth to the feul input to the carb, blow in it to be sure it is clear, if not youl have to use carb cleaner and air to clean it out, air and carb cleaner is the key to cleaning it properly, some carbs need to be taken apart and soaked in a carb cleaner, before reassembly, just keep blowing air in all the inputs and out puts, to be sure they are cleared, reassemble and GO,,,

Remove the seat. There should be a large plastic box with ( I think ) 6 screws in it to remove the air box cover. Go for it, then remove the filter. Your now exactly half way done.

I would separate the feed wires from the fuse box/ distribution point and measure any current draw in the separate feeds. That will tell me instantly where the fault/leak is.

Normally white smoke is water in the combustion chamber but this is air cooled so either too much fuel, incorrect fuel or burning oil can cause this.

Question edited for clarity and toss in some CAPS. Question moved from Garden category. Fuel delivery issue. See if there is any in the fuel tank. Stuck float in the carb. Blocked jets in the carb. https://www.google.com/search?q=kymco+k+pipe+125cc ..
