Rear transmission howling (help)  By  scooterglutton (Read 1,199 times)

what was the part number on the bearing that you purchased from napa?
other readers facing a similar situation can benefit from knowing.

changing part numbers during a production run is not uncommon.
the clutch shaft we were discussing was changed 3 times, and each had it's own part number.


brake fluid leaks or spills should be dealt with immediately.
brake fluid is corrosive to the plastic panels on our scoots, and probably a lot of other things too.

i have no idea, but this part of the brake system isn't under pressure.
keep that in mind when looking for a fix.
also, i would look for cylinders that didn't have these "glasses"

i had a similar problem with my airbox, it would fit on the bike but NONE of the mounting holes would line up with anything.
the only thing that "fit" was the piece that went on the carb, the rest had to be zip tied.
it ran and sounded a lot better with the airbox though.

i wouldn't necessarily call it fun, but it DID give me the opportunity to come up with unique fixes to the problems i encountered.
the radiators on my bike were a joke.
i went to twist off one of the hoses, and the radiator body buckled.
this radiator had to be nothing more that a few sheets of copper foil.
the worst part was they wanted something like 100 bucks for a replacement.
there was absolutely NO WAY i was going to pay that.
the solution?
went with an inline filler cap and scrounged up a car heater core.
took me about a week to get all the bugs out of that fix, but it worked, and perfectly too.

you might moan and groan about it now, but you'll miss your baby when she's gone.
there isn't hardly a day goes by that i don't wish i was out there on my chinese 250.
