Hey guys and gals, Very new to boards and forums and stuff so apologies if I've done this wrong and broken a few rules...
Here's my current situation:
I am 17 years old I have a GY6 2007 Hanglong 50cc scooter (4 stroke) It has a nice after market exhaust and sounds awesome, pretty bog standard apart from that. I bought it at 3 thousand ish KM on the dial and It is now up to 5550km on the dial. I did an oil change at 4300ish km and put a new spark plug in 150km ago and a newer CDI at the same time (gave me 3 extra km/h oh yeahhh) Everything was going awesome!
Until 6 days ago where I was riding along at 55km/h and all of a sudden the engine made a large growling sound and I lost all throttle, I flicked my indicator on, pulled over and the engine completely shut off. At the time I had assumed my belt was broken because when I went to try and start it after it had shut off it makes a single click.
long story short, walked and pushed it 6km home (holy moly that really sucked) and took the cover off, the belt was fine! I'm incredibly confused as of what to do next... She doesnt start and I really cant think of anything that would cause that loss of power and suddenly refusing to turn on! I love the dear little thing and it is alot of fun and having to walk places now sucks. I have seen conflicting statements online from broken starter / solonoid to water in my gas, any advice would be really really appreciated. I have tried the old CDI, new fuse, new coil and nothing at all. I've fully recharged my battery and nothing, still the damn dreaded click. Really really lost.
Please help the noob out! thank you!

Check the Ground Wire Strap that is from the engine the frame, remove and clean them up shiny and install.

Try adjusting your valves. Wiggle the plugs where they connect to the cdi i had to replace the connectors the 5 pin and the 3pin connector. Mine died in the middle of a cruise and the valves needed adjustment. Mine ran perfect after the valve adjustment. Check your sparkplug also.
