Phew is she quick!!! Got the head installed and got 135 psi. Decided to take her for a quick test ride up to the corner store to grab some beer, tomorrow is cvt tuning time, gotta play with my sliders!! And my brother flies down Friday, so I'll be grabbing some spray paint cans to get the scoot painted while he's here!!

There's was a sound like something was loose during my ride, I think it may just be my cvt case cuz I have 3 bolts out of 9-11 bolts. But I'm pretty sure it's from the cvt case, will find out tomorrow progress is great. Thanks niz, I know if you had this scoot in your hands it would've been done and running smooth months ago it's still a learning process for me!!

m.youtube.com/watch?v=_08ztT1D8F4There's a video, hearing a constant rattle from the cvt case, and then when I let off the throttle it goes tink tink! Obviously my carb is not tuned so don't hate

Well, I'm guessing that some of the copper from the head gasket got up by my crank and that's what the rattling was. I was riding her after tuning carb and not hearing the rattle while she sat, I made it down the road maybe .5miles of a 1.5mile circle trip and I started hearing the rattle, few hundred feet down the road I started to hear a constant scream of weeeeerrrrrrr and then at half throttle I lost all power, full throttle did nothing, and then she died out. Sounded like a really hard soft seize. What are my options with this motor? Fixable?

To start with I'd wanna take the top end off and check all of that out and see what the bottom end looks, sounds, and feels like. It may be bad, it may not be too bad. Hard to know without checking it out.

Crazyguy came to my house today on his scoot and wow gotta say he is really living up to his forum name haha. He drove his scoot all the way from Clearwater (maybe 30 miles down a super busy 4 lane road US19) pulling on a string attached to his throttle cable! LMAO Scoot seemed to be running pretty well but that string- yeah Crazy! Haha, gotta get around!! Gonna order a new cable monday morning thanks for the piston and front turn signal my friend. I have done the same thing man. My cable snapped on takeoff at a stoplight. I pushed the scooter over to a parking lot and started trying to look for alternative solutions. I found some wire in my helmet locker and rigged it up! Got me home man. Thank goodness for all the Macgyver I watched as a child.

Hard to know without checking it out. I heard the rattle and opened up the top end to find out I had a 50cc head gasket on and the piston cut it flush with the cylinder jug. Pictures were posted recently. I then threw it all together, fired her up and took her for a drive. Then boom this all happens. Gonna check cvt sometime and if all that feels and looks in good shape I'll split cases again, plan is to sell this engine and beg my dad to get the engine from sitticuss I planned on purchasing, but i just can't afford that price all at once!!

I know money is tight for a lot of folks out there.

I watched a video called "whistle and knocking" Brent had on his YouTube channel, he said the whistle was from gears and the knocking was clutch. So one of these next few days I'll tear apart cvt and check it out. Either way I want the 90cc engine you got! If I can get that, sell this engine than there's half of your engine paid back to my dad(if he even makes me pay him back)
