Scooter just broke down, everything was running just fine til now. My question is, could a thrown out weight in the variator cause it to suddenly stop and die? I can get it cranked and idling again, but there's some knocking around in the variator, that's why I figured a weight was thrown out of place.

The knocking could be a flipped weight or worst case the crankshaft, but you have a replacement or is the stroker on it already.

It will try to turn over but just wont. I hooked it up to a guys truck with battery cables, and got it to crank and idle some, but it sounded rough. I have it on the battery charger now. I used the variator fan to turn the motor over, and it seems like it has compression. I don't know. This sucks bad! I started an awesome new job today, now this happens..... |

Put on the stroker your crank bearings may be shot good thing you have the parts.

I have a guy coming over to look at it tonight. He was a scooter mechanic in a city here in NC. My brother said he would do my stroker crank this weekend.

Got the complete motor/case completely taken off scooter today, waiting on my mechanic to pick it up, rebuild with stroker, and bring it back now....
