rings could be going bad or camshaft spun or valves messed up, may need a complete top end rebuild. I had a 150 i rebuilt that had the same symptoms i replaced the head cam and cylinder kit and it ran like a champ again. The problems stem from running it too hard at break in.

check the elc. relay at times if thats not working the cdi will not charge and the scoot will only go 20 or so.

Replace the engine. You could of done that instead of giving those thieves at the shop $400.

whats a cost of a 150cc motor About $400 www.scooterworks.com/complete-engine--150cc-short-case--gy6-chinese-products-966.php#.Ujch-tLMDSkThere are probably better deals to be had and I think there is probably a guy on here that would let you have one real cheap but there you have it... If you have never built an engine and this one got to where it's at now I don't know that I would recommend you rebuild the top-end. It's not easy for everyone and getting it all to run right after could be even harder... |
