I've had my first and only scoot for two years now. I'm 47 and wanting more. Love these things.

I prefer using a medium tip pen for my Crossword puzzles, but a #2 works well for mistakes.  |

It's different. I just don't see the correlation between a Ship Wheel and a Chinese Scoot...  |

With that sound,... "like a grrrrr grrrrrr grrrrr sound"... and a fresh battery.....the starter. My thinking, is that if it were the plug, then the starter would turn over just fine but you wouldn't get spark from the plug. Check connections on starter and battery. Just my two cents...  I'm sure someone here can point you in the right direction on testing the starter. Or, there is a thread on it... |

No, ..actually the NAPA belt, even after he repeated the Gates Powerlink number, was still the wrong belt. Looked like something you might use on a power edger. Not even close..... Day 1 of breakdown ..... wasted! |

Okay, makes sense. I do have 13's with what used to be a Powerlink 835 20. He had my old parts and did mention the size difference of the drive plates......Those two simple questions, knowing his parts, would have made a happy customer and saved a lot of headache. So now, they have my money tied up and will have wasted three hours of my time plus 100 miles on cager gas prices. Not to mention two to four extra days of valuable down time, being my only ride. At least now, I'm not as clueless as the sales person out to just sell something. Arrgghh. Thanks for that tid bit of info. You learn something new everyday.  |

I was going home after work on Monday, about 50mph, when I felt something strange. My first thought was the belt slipping in the CVT. Then suddenly the rear wheel locked up for a split second with a screech of the tire. With the motor still running,... I was able to coast into an apartment complex and park it. After towing it safely back home and pulling the cover,...Yes, it was the belt. Also discovered I needed a new variator....No big deal, 8000+ miles is pretty good. Today,after picking up the parts needed, the belt is too big, he said it would work for a long case....I wanted the Powerlink 835 20. The variator and drive plate are both too big for the crankshaft. He pointed out that the drive plate was a little bigger, 123mm, but that it was for a 150. My old stock variator is 115mm....i.e....nothing fits properly. NAPA also wasted my time, Tuesday, on a completely wrong type of belt. So now, another day wasted when I could have already had parts on the way to be here by Friday. The only progress made in this fiasco, is a long-wanted impact wrench. But still missed the sale price by two days.... Is it just my 157QMJ that is to small? I've seen the 115mm performance drive plates, but not a 123mm +/-. Open for suggetions, now that I know there are different size crankshafts floating around out there.... The belt is no problem, but that crankshaft, sure pissed me off today.         |

Thanks for the link. This is going to come in handy today,...just broke my Gates yesterday. Luckily NAPA has one in stock locally. I've been wanting to get into the variator and mess with the weights, but haven't purchased an impact. Also, I've been a bit intimidated about getting in there. Well, now's the time to become familiar. |
