I picked up a CPI GTR 50cc water cooled 2 stoke for a $100 from a guy that had left it outside in the weather for 3 years. When i got it home and tested it the electronics seemed ok but it would not start.
I opened the kick start and was horrified to find it full of water. The metal was rusting into paste. I would re-build this but believe me its toast. I need help finding a complete engine for this poor mistreated baby. I tried CPI in Canada but they were worthless, When i finally got somebody on the phone they told me to fax them a parts list. I did. I have never heard from them again. Guess it scared em when they saw the photos.This is really a shame! the scoot only had 400 miles on it. Would love to rebuild it. Any ideas on parts would be great. Thanks
