I'm pretty sure you'll like it 👍 The rc-one has globs of torque. Careful it'll want to do a back flip on break in. 😆

Got it out for a wash today, too rainy to ride still. I want to find a SR50 handlebar cover with the integrated signals.

The scoot looks great! Besides the big ‘ol fat pipe you wouldn’t know what’s lurking underneath.

It's the perfect sleeper.
Nobody suspects the Italian Inquisition.
I do need better suspension.. the current stuff lacks rebound dampening. And I need slicks.

Started it backwards today, that was exciting.. Quick timing fix and all was better. Hoping tomorrow is even remotely clear, I plan on a quick burn to shake it down.

It's a lot easier to drive than the Dio was, but equally as eager to pick the front wheel up in the air. Here is the problem I have currently encountered though, I pulled in my driveway and the bike did the typical hard stop like it soft seized. I tried the kicker and sure enough it was kinda hard to kick over. Pulled the jug, everything is fine, not any marks at all really.. Pulled the kicker cover to find this. There is no end play on that shaft either, so it's not like it can walk around. There was clearance there before as well... so I don't know where it went.. it definitely rubs though. Don't know what to make of it, none of the shims provided fit on the shaft and then allow the rear half to fit over it. Re read the instructions and didn't see any wording about it needing one there, only under the bell. I am going to pull the trans and inspect further but something odd is going on.

Pull the shaft back out and put some retaining compound on the shaft/bearing. Mine used to do that in the past until the loctite, the shaft walks into the bearing causing the rubbing. Doesn’t take much to do it. I used loctite 609. If you’ve got needle bearings there is something else needed, shim or cup on the other end of the shaft?

According to Malossi instructions there is no bearing in the inner casing..
It's just the bearing in the cover, then the bearing in the kicker cover that support the shaft.
I was just watching my assembly video at that timecode.
There is a retaining clip that holds the thing from going in too far... but perhaps it's moving ever so slightly on that

The bearing (in the trans cover) could of still backed out of the seat/pocket into the transmission side. Disassembly will be needed for sure. I’m sure it won’t be a big issue for you to fix.
