It looks like it's directing you to install an offset key. Did it come with an offset flywheel key?

It looks like they're saying that you just need to install that key so that it corrects the timing. Should just need to pop the flywheel off (do you have a flywheel puller tool?) install the offset key and reassemble. Done.

Maybe lap the crank and flywheel to reduce the risk of sheering the key??

Wonder if I will notice a big difference or not after installation.

Basically you just use valve grinding compound between the crank and flywheel seating surface to create and better "grip" between the two surfaces. Your just cleaning up the machined surfaces to make them fit together better. Apply to one surface, spin flywheel back and forth a few times. Clean up surfaces and reassemble. Niz and Brent have done this recently.

It's very simple- as simple as what ryan just described. For just a few bucks for the valve grinding compound and 5 minutes to do it's def worth it! Here's a pic and a little video...

Still haven't had it painted yet probably gonna keep it yellow now . anyhow gonna toss these instead of the old ones which don't provide much light. They a tiny tiny bit bigger by like a hair . and pretty much will not take much effort to install.so maybe I can see at night now . could not find headlights that were made for the scoot . got these from auto zone.
