I fiqured out what the problem was at first I thought it was the rings but I took a stright edge to the top of the cylinder and the top of the cyclinder is not level you can see light on the timeing chain side of the cylinder so it was letting the oil seep through that I tried leveling it out as best I could and tried blocking it out but it still shows light.
I tried to contact the seller both before and after the install I never heared back from him for almost a month so I left him negitive feed back then with in an hour he messaged me back and told me he dose not sell defective products witch clearly this is defective unless you love 2 strokes and you want to make your 4 stroke engine smoke like a 2 stroke.
I would not buy anything from this guy at all he has no customer skills he is fine when he sells you something but as soon as you find out theres something wrrong he goes nuts and is is always the buyers fault maybe he should look alittle more closely at what hes selling or he knows what he is selling is junk and tries to make it everybody elses fault but his.
There is another big bore kit for the vino 125 I forget what website I saw it on but it is a much better kit and if I rember right it was a bit cheaper to.
I have learned something from this when ever I buy anything now I look at the negtive feed back comments before I used to just check to see how much negtive feed back was there and not look at the coments I also ask as many annoying questions that I can even if I already know the answer to them just to see how good there customer service is or at least to see if they know what there selling.

Ebay told me to open a dispute with paypal the seller contacted me agien I quote his exact email (Why I have to Refund you as you FAILED on SELF Installation, can NOT PROVE a YAMAHA Licensed Mechanic copy, even left me a NEGATIVE Feedback? No way!)
I hope nobody deals with this guy or gets taken by this guy He really is a true A hole.

I would not be so upset if the seller just worked with me he did not even try to work things out at all the minute I told him something was wrong he got all defenceive thers nothing wrong with the kit I sent you the piston rings are fine you failed on install.
But how can you tell that the piston rings are good unless you take them out of the package and put them in the cylinder and use a feeler gauge to check to make sure there is a good size gap when compressed not very little to no gap at all or how can you tell if the oil ring is to small unless you put it on the piston you can't tell just by looking at a package and say those are good just because something is new dose not mean it's not defective.

I installed it my self but I know what I am doing I have done kits before on gy6 engines but who ever cut the piston rings messed up the oil ring has a huge gap in it even after it has been compressed and I found out yesterday that one of the comperssen rings has to tight of a gap when it is compressed witch I was told can over lap and cause oil to seep past.
But there is no marks on the cyclinder walls I have not even got to use the kit yet I installed it and as soon as it started it was burning oil witch is normal for a few minutes after doing a top end but it should go away after a few minutes of running but it just kept getting heavier so I shut it off I opened the top end at least 3 times trying to figure out what is going on with it before I finaly just removed the kit completly.
The kit it's self seems to be good quilty but the piston rings are defective I asked for a set of replacement rings for it that is when he stoped contacting me.
I torqued the head down I lost the paper that had the torque wrighten on it.
If I did something wrong installing the kit then why when I installed my factory cyclinder and piston and it is not burning oil I installed them both the same way.

Don't buy the 143cc big bore kit for the yamaha vino 125 scooter from scooter*spark off ebay my kit burned oil from the first time I started it up so I took it a part agien and found a pool of oil sitting on top of the piston so I contacted the seller and he told me that he wanted detailed pictures of the piston so I took the pictures of the piston and the pool of oil on the top of the piston. He keeped on saying to me just admit you failed but I checked everything over and over agien everything is right expect for one thing the oil ring has a bigger gap then it should but that is not my fault for that. He did not contact me for 2 whole days untill tonight when I left him Negative Feedback and then he finaly got back to me and he told me and I quote (As you already left Negative Feedback, why I've to Refund you?) www.ebay.com/itm/YAMAHA-Forte-Cygnus-Si-SV-Max-Vity-Vino-125-YJ125-55mm-143cc-Big-Bore-Cylinder-/171146407798?pt=Other_Vehicle_Parts&hash=item27d91eef76&vxp=mtr#ht_2630wt_666If I knew how to post pictures on here I would show you what I am talking about.

my 2006 yamaha vino 125 on friday 2014/08/15 a guy in a ford escape cut me off and totaled my bike I had the bike less then a month I put a 1000 RPM contra spring and clutch springs in it on Friday morning.
I need to replace the bike by this weekend as I am going away and was going to take my bike with me but now I have to replace it I would like to replace it with a yamaha bws50/zuma 50 with the 2 stroke engine but I don't have any time to get the performance parts I want can the bike still climb steep hills being stock?
I had a 2009 Honda jazz I took with me a few years ago on my trip and it could not climb hills or keep up with traffic the speed limt is 70km/h and the most the bike could do is 60km/h and the steep hill I went up droprd my speed down to 40km/h and then the bike was never really the same agien.

I looked at another tomos today the back wheel has alot of play I know it needs bearings in the final drive and the bearing in the rear swing arm.
What are the bearing sizes used on a tomos gy6 150cc engine?

I looked at one a few months ago at a motorcycle shop the bike was junk but ran great it needed brakes front and back rear wheel bearings and one of the engine bushings cracked on the belt cover side but it had 80000 miles on it and the seat was ripped and the under seat storage was broken and the guy wanted $1000 firm for it and would not move on the price at all.

I try not to do much creeping but in the city it happens from time to time I just bought the bike when I got the bike it only had 845 km's on it I am the secend owner of it and it now has 2245km's on it. I have put 1400 km's on it since I got the bike in april.
I think it might be the belt it's self because it dose not always slip just when the belt is cold once you get it warmed up it dose not slip.

I was born in 1993 and I have been trying to find a bike from the year I was born but it has been very hard I live in canada so shipping the frame might be expensive but I really just want the vin plate and the vin number that is stamped in the frame.
I don't plan on useing them on anything if both vin numbers are located on the front of the bike by the head tube I will buy the whole front half of the frame.
It would mean alot to me if I can find a vin from the year I was born.
