Step 1 remove caliper. step 2 using channel lock pliers or a c-clamp compress the piston back into the caliper. step 3 reinstall pads and install on bike. If the piston will not compress you can open the fluid reservoir to release pressure, however you may have to bleed the brakes afterwards.

To me it almost sounds like it could be bearings going on the crank, have you checked your oil, and if so did you have any shiny bits on the dipstick? But in case it is in the CVT, remove the CVT cover and see if when you run it if you can tell where it is coming from. Also have you checked the valves to make sure they are not loose and causing the noise. I may be totally off and hope it is an easy fix for you, just throwing out some ideas.

Yea that is what it sounds like the float stuck open and was flooding out the carb. I had the exact same thing happen to me when I bought my scooter, had about 300 miles on it at the time.

looks to be more road rash than anything really broken, sand, throw some body filler in it, make smooth, and repaint.
edit: looking at the first photo looks like there is a circular piece broken, but not completely, I would still just throw some body filler in it and paint.

Pardon the late reply. I took out the clutch assembly and checked. Everything is fine. No broken clutch spring or torque spring. I put it back together and now there isn't dust build up anymore. Weeks. I didn't cange anything or altered the configuration of the belt, variator , or weights. could have been something was stuck and when you removed the clutch it unstuck and started working correctly.

It may be that when you were tightening it the brake line itself was being twisted, so when you pull the brakes the line untwists and loosens. Try to hold the screw part of the line with needle nose pliers or something similar while you tighten the u-bolt.

My scooter will idle very nice when the tach says between 1800 and 2k, however I have had it idling at about 800 without dying it almost wants to and sometimes will stall, but more times than not it will idle and I can rev and takeoff with it at 800 rpms, also my clutch seems to start grabbing just over 3k on the tach.

Speedy recovery man, hate to hear about your spill.

Also check to make sure the nuts holding the throttle cable to the bracket on the carb are not loose. That is also where you can adjust out the play in your throttle, at least when I had a similar issue, slight turn of throttle before it would engage.

Now I did notice at the top of the video if the response is copy and paste, the rep states like in the video. I believe it was Dmartin95 that stated they were made at that factory. Not saying if the pistons are or are not forged, I don't have the experience to get into that, however I think it may have been a misstatement that their pistons are created at that factory.

Oh, we don't have to wait till Monday, I already know Ok, this wasn't exactly the answer I was asking for, but it's what she replied with... This is the company Taida has manufacture their pistons. Watch the video then you tell me if they're true forged pistons or not: I remember watching that video on how its made awhile ago lol.

Im hoping this was the issue... While looking around closely for the gas smell I have been smelling for quite some time, I noticed this hose was not attached to anything! That hose would have gone to the emissions on the scooter if it wasn't attached to anything that could have caused a lean condition due to added air being added to the system and not the unburnt fuel coming from the emissions.

From those two videos especially the first one looks like it is the tire causing it. May be able to balance it to fix it or replace with a better tire, but may still have to balance to not have any bounce or anything.

Have you tried to jump the solenoid, maybe the starter switch is going/gone bad?
