The stuff over here is just driven off the crank. There is a worm gear behind the stator. I have had stuff in the past which works off the throttle. If you have a splitter cable running to the pump, you have your answer.

The CG50 has a separate cover to protect it from the elements it should come straight out without fuss,but most just seal the pump end up at the pump and carb end and go premix it,s much safer in the lond run.

One crappy paint job deserves another Now I’m futzing with the electrical I know my headlight is good, I’ve tested it with a drill battery and it lit right up, but when connected to the bike - Bubkis! I’ll have to do more investigation when I sober up. That’ll be some time in June. There is also a brown wire and a green and yellow wire that has been cut. If I’m looking at the schematic correctly it’s for the brake light switch. Tail lights, bilinkers and electric start works. The headlight does not I guess I’ll whip our my multi meter and pretend I know how to use it.

I am not sure but headlight might not work without the engine running. Thats correct for much later jogs so I would wait till its up an running.

I got the new Piston today. The circlips went in easier than usual so I knew I was in trouble.
I cannot for the life of me get that damn cylinder on. My rings are right where they should be…it just won’t go on.
Can I get an “ARRRAGH!!!!!!” From the congregation
I’m so close. Hell, if I wasn’t a moron and busted the piston in the first place I’d be riding it by now.

Oh, also - I almost set it on fire.
I’m not gonna say anything else about that except watch out for bare wires.
