I wonder if it is electrical?
Do you have a spare CDI and coil?

There is an issue a lot of people face when changing to 11 pole stators: The 11 pole stators have 3 power output wires that must go to the regulator: most have all three as yellow wires, some have yellow, pink, and white as the 3 output wires. They also have a green wire, which is ground, then the red and black wire that goes to the CDI, and the red and white wire from the pickup coil. Here is the issue: most scoots only have TWO power wires in the harness that go to the regulator, and may or may not have a ground wire. The 6 wire regulator has 3 yellow wires coming out of it. You need to make sure that all 3 power wires from the stator are hooked up to the 3 yellow wires on the regulator. I cut the wire harnesses off of both the stator, and the regulator, and hooked everything up with bullet connectors. The green wire from the stator has to be hooked up to the green wire on the regulator. If you make sure everything is hooked up like that, then make sure the red wire from the regulator is going to the positive terminal on your battery, you will get at least 14v charging your battery. I recommend cutting off the wire harness, and running new wires, as I described. your a little premature here, a bad battery will cause the same symptom he is having. Encouraging someone with a charging problem to cut there harness is a pretty big step. John |

so this morning I topped off the battery. It read 12.5V Went to work and back 15 miles round trip, the battery read 11.97V when I got home Hooked up the volt meter to start the scooter, voltage dropped to 10.16v when starting ok lets try this, take the battery out of the scooter ( keep it out of the scooter) give it a full slow charge. Then measure the voltage (do not put it back into the scooter) let it rest several hours (6-10). Then recheck the voltage and tell us what you have. John |

lets not look at what is said to be good. What do you have?

I would suggest to get the stator and regulator wiring off the original harness. Take the battery out of the scooter disconnected. Then check the voltage if below 12.5vdc charge it. Check the voltage again after the charge is complete. Let it sit a few hours and check again. With a bad battery you will get low system voltage even if you have a solid charging system.

I had not heard of dyna beads till I got on the forums.

shoot a video of the cam bearings and rockers while its running. Lets have a look. Keep a rag under there will be some oil splatter. Be sure to get the front and rear bearing in the video.

did you open the cvt? John Yep, mentioned it near the end of the OP above. Belt looks good, a couple of weights have slight wear, deglazed the clutch pads out of habit. I plan on switching to sliders soon, loved the difference they made on my 50cc. Otherwise I'm following your advice and keeping the internals stock (at least a while longer, though I'm beginning to feel the modding itch). to scratch the itch, open your cvt again. Take the clutch apart remove the pads, pulleys a complete breakdown clean all surfaces. Use some high temp bearing grease and grease all pivot points. Get the old grease from the needle bearing, but repack with fresh clean grease. This is an amazing trick, not only will it save the life of the clutch, it will smooth the movement all around. When your done you would have wished you did it in the first PDI. John |

check the cam bearings and valve lash.

pictures of the stator plug and the od measurements will tell the story. If you have a 6 pole stator you will need to replace the magneto if you want to in stall an 8 pole.

Just looking over your video again, I suspect you might have a dc cdi. Get a volt meter on there and see what the battery voltage is .
