Please, by all means--- <I Know for a fact> Scrappy is indeed one of the original founders of scooter parts distribution.
Scrappy has no need to defend himself !!!! Translation for all to understand and mismatched parts being somewhat standardised is a GREAT accomplishment!!!!!
MRP came along and, well........... Made the price higher for others..........
Body styles had the same meaning in china before they came to the states. Thats all I'm saying. JMHO.
Translation and part availability with someone that knows what they are doing is a VERY VALUABLE!!!!!!

Have you checked the carb?
All this started from a bogging issue correct? Otherwise things were running smooth?
It maybe a simple fuel or carb tuning issue....... (Just my shot in the dark answer) Returne the valve lash to stock !!!!!!!
Lets start slow.............

Yup, they are professionals "Street Racing" with cars not allowed on the street.......
Not a lot of folks these days get away with breaking the law on video..........
Don't get me wrong, it's a cool show!!!!!! Just not really reality TV.
Again, Much like Wrestling it's fun to watch.

I admit mine does it forward and reverse also--- kind of a spin then an abrupt stop with a clunk. This is normal IMHO....
Kudos to you for being vigilant in checking every detail Mr Jam!!!!!!!!!
Keep it up and, PLEASE as a lot of questions!!!!!!!! Do some research and above all,
Have fun while learning something new!!!!!!

How about a simple start condition before going any further?
Just a simple suggestion that may help a bit.........
Removing things before you can even start the scooter may not be the best idea. JMHO

Thank You for introducing me to that song Ricardo....
Not a real elaborate or difficult song but, very cool to hear. Reminds me of Sublime (that's a good thing)
Thanks Again.

Very true Bender!!!!! Then again, those same potholes can cause accidents with a liter bike as well..... Vote for infrastructure -_- Yeah, I can see how riders in most city settings can get frustrated. Reno has snow and ice to deal with too..... Heck, I know riders who gave up because changing gears constantly in city traffic is just plain annoying...... Anyways, at least our traffic is not like some countries... Your horn is not a Brake

By no means am I trying to diagnose an issue without more information......
Personally from day one, my rear tire has had a similar issue when spun...... It does spin freely but, if you spin it in reverse to does seem to Thunk/Thud when it comes to a stop. For lack of a better term.
I REALLY need to get some batteries for my camera and learn how to post pics/vids. Things COULD be perfectly fine with Mr. Jams scoot. that little bit of info does not warrant a tear down IMO.
A new rider ripping into the case for a possible issue is not something I would generally recommend. Then again he did ask for all possible help.....
For example, lat's say there is a hub bearing issue---- Or a brake issue, Tearing open the gear case is not the answer......
I maybe Very wrong and look forward to learning from my mistakes!!!!!!!
GOOD LUCK!!!!

I have no doubt RCQ is very knowledgable and a VERY good mechanic....You seem to be missing the point my friend.... did you by chance read all the thread or even the Update I provided?
Yes a sonic cleaning is sometimes needed but,
Advising the purchase of new parts and possible expensive cleaning procedures without knowing the background or seeing the parts in question is not a good idea.
When I show the pics You will understand........

So your saying you did coin the phrase Handsome boy--- Not just translate the meaning......
Scrappy is a very good Parts dealer IMO. Probably the best around!!!!!!!!!!
