New problem, throttling very slow at first is killing my scooter, whereas throttling more aggressively seems to work, so long as i keep pushing it. Attaching 2 videos to demonstrate. I should also note currently I am starting my scooter my touching the solenoid terminals with a screwdriver. I assure you these links are safe btw  Low throttleHigh throttleValves need adjusting badly. I would fine out what I did to the starting system while I had it apart. The only way to start it with a screwdriver is to lay down or have the side panel off, not good either way.

Fork = mild winter Spoon = lots of snow to shovel Knife = very cold and wind cuts like a knife

The 07 JCL 250A has the linhai, I own one. The system is simple, 20A fuse feeds power to the entire system, if it is out the scooter will not make a sound.
You mentioned the 15A fuse by the battery but you didn't mention that you checked it, if it's out no start, brake lights, horn, etc. Do you still have and try to use the remote start? If so this can be a problem.. The scooter will start with a good 20A fuse and the 15A fuse blown or missing via remote because it is wired directly to the remote/alarm system and is not part of the normal key switch system.
Check the 15A fuse if it is good and you still have nothing then it's time to start looking for what you pulled loose under the front cowling when you was doing the accessory install. Start buttons usually just don't go bad when you are doing something else, it's 99% of the time you did something instead.
Pressing either brake handle send 12Vdc to the starter relay and pushing the start button sends the ground side to complete the circuit. It's easy to pull something loose when doing these things. If you turn the key on, have horn, brake lights, etc. especially brake lights then money says you've pulled the red/yellow wire loose from the start button.

On this note, I suppose I should do a video on identifying which engine you have on your scooter. You'd be astounded how many people call us up, but have no idea what it is that they own. It's just another one of those things that we walk people through everyday. Matt Matt that is one heck of an idea! You could make it a 2 or 3 part videos series which could include belt sizes to the engine ID.
This is helpful.

The only way I think it could be done at this point for bikes with shreaded belts, and some sort of reference... Model such and such, uses this belt.... what about engine case numbers? Short cases are generally easy for the 150's. They use pretty much the same belt... the mid and long cases however.... That's a challenge. The long cases that I know of use 2 standard sizes the 835 and 842, you can special order a 846 if you want? If there are any other sizes for the long case GY-6 I'm not aware of them as far as normal every day street scooters.

Leaves are just about all fallen off in my area and I'll remove this fall theme. So I'll let everyone guess the next one.

Alley remember the guy who wanted to argue with you about how to measure a belt and make you out wrong? scooterdoc.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=250cc&action=display&thread=8451&page=1When I read it I sent you this which confirms what Matt is doing on the video. www.ehow.com/how_6751062_correct-way-measure-belts.htmlAs one who has been in the industrial maintenance and fabrication field all my life I've known this for a long time. One can use the roll around it with a tape measure but it's easy to slip and the measurement be wrong. If done correctly like in Matts video you'll get extremely close. Also Matt I know a couple of tricks to measure a belt when you don't have a belt at all to go by. If you are interested PM me. But it would be hard for me to believe that any person that has internet availability would need to measure a belt? After all I can find the belt size to any scooter I want with the old "Bing" search and "Google" too? Also if they get on the phone with your company and say I have a ___________ scooter with a __________ engine I've betting you know what they need and the variety of sizes that fit the scooter. But that is a great helpful video and I'm planning a Video Tech section in the near future and I'll grab this one for sure!  JR |

Call me a Dumb Yankee,but What is a persimmon, And what do you do with it?  What? ? A persimmon? On man look at the yummy links I posted above, can make everything from bread to pudding, fudge to cookies. Here's some stuff on them, several kinds and mine are the native type persimmons that go back to when the pilgrims came over:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persimmon
Some of the finest golf club heads are made of persimmon wood, very hard and durable. In fact if I ever decided to cut my trees I would have no trouble selling the trees for a good penny.
All who know persimmons know that you don't dare try to eat them until there are ripe and with the native tress like I have they must have a good frost or two to take the pucker out of them and finish off the ripening process. Last night we got down to 24F, they are ready and this afternoon I will be picking them up and shaking them out of the trees too. One can store them for up to 3 weeks in the fridge. I put these through a colinder to press out the fresh pulp and remove the seeds. Once you have the pulp you can use it fresh or freeze it for later.
They've been around a long time and in the days of old people always harvested them just like other native things for lots of goodies, like pecans, blackberries, black walnuts, hickory nuts, mulberries, paw paws, muscadines and more. Arkansas is full of wild natural fruits and nuts that are delicious and free!

I have added another quick reference feature. If you at any time click on the "Recent Threads" link you will now find in the middle by the thread maker's avatar a line called "In the Board Of" and the listing of the board it was posted in.
itistheride.boards.net/threads/recent
Click on that and it will take you straight to that board. Enjoy.
