For about the last week , I'm finding that the forum is very slow . I can't seem to refresh , takes a long time for my posts to come up in the threads . If I open a thread sometimes it will not open .
Anyone else the forum is acting funny for ?

Lets check your work, Take the valve cover off and rotate the motor so the CAM SPROCKET lines up like this: Now take a picture of the FLYWHEEL TIMING marks and post the picture: Alleyoop I agree with checking this , but it should not have been touched . unless the flywheel is not on the keyway. I think he is missing cdi power off the stator . John

What DOES torch a bike is jumping it while the jump vehicle is running! Poof.....new regulator. I've tested this "theory" and that's not true. I've jumped 3 bikes off running cars multiple times on each one. Even revved the engine to get the starter cranking faster. Nothing blown or damage done and nothing down the road.. It helps low and high compression bikes start, and gives me a better sound analysis of why the engine is not combusting.I had a bike with a bad battery and broken kick starter, and bad engine that frequently had to get jumped by random people. Have you thought maybe your battery was dead because of a blown regulator from the first jump off the running car ? Lets say the regulator on the scooter dumps anything over 14vdc to ground , regulators in the scooters are tiny . Say the car regulator dumps anything over 14.5vdc , say its a 125amp alternator in the car . what do you think will happen when you apply 14.5vdc to a scooter regulator that dumps anything over 14vdc it starts dumping that .5vdc to ground , then the cars regulator pushes up output to bring it back to 14.5vdc and has over 100amp to do it with . Do you think the tiny regulator on the scooter is going to win ? You do what works for you but if you often have to jump the battery then there is some other problem . I can speak for myself I do not jump off a running car , just my 2 cents . John

I think you need to take your battery out of the scooter and put it on a slow charge 1.5-2amp slow charge , let it run through its cycle . check the voltage on the battery then let it sit for a few hours and see what it drops to . If the regulator is giving good voltage disconnected from the battery then it looks like it could be a bad battery .
I would be interested in what the load is , have you added any lights , changed to led's , put in a larger wattage headlight bulb . If you changed the load was it on the ac or dc side ?

Checked stator wiring (bullet connectors). Blue/Yellow = .14 Vac Blk/Red = 9 Vac Does this tell me anything about where to go next? Rerun that test with the wires disconnect and make sure it has a strong cranking . I would be happy to try and help over the phone . John

when checking for brake lights or for starting it can work with either brake lever so try both . Be sure you have an engine ground that will keep the electric start from working , you should hear a click when a brake is applied and starter button is pressed .
