so what do I do if my gear shafts/cogs aren’t spinning freely no one has made a video about it so I have no clue, any help or a link to a video explaining it would help

It's nigh on impossible to diagnose something like this by text. It could be many things really. You could start by replacing the gear cluster and take it from there. They are not very expensive

In my opinion, you forget to check if your piston is in compression stroke or in exhaust stroke (by the valves)... So it is possible you have to turn your flywheel another 360. Please correct me when i'm wrong
@motorcyclefixer
@motorcyclefixer Ай бұрын
You should always do it on the compression stroke. You would find it difficult to set it on the exhaust stroke because the cams would be opening the valves and it would not stay at top dead centre You should only be able to put the cam sprocket on to the cams in one direction and therefore it would always be correct even if you did manage to do it on the exhaust stroke it would still be ok as the flywheel creates a spark every time the flywheel passes the pick up. On the exhaust stroke it is called a wasted spark as there is no fuel to burn.

Hi, I have a two first gears falling out to neutral and now it starts to happen on the third gear so I am preparing to open the engine, do you have any idea what can be the cause of the gears falling out in this engine? Thank you for this great instruction video.

Hi Thank you for your comment It sounds like it could be the detent lever Either the spring isn't very good or where the roller sits in the gear barrel is worn Hope you get it sorted

@motorcyclefixer thank you very much, I was also considering buying an other engine hoping that it won't have such problems. I was afraid that gears are damaged, but I see some hope now. The service repair cost so much that I could just buy another bike for the price, so I am planning to open it with my bf. I wish you all the best and leaving a sub.

I know this is old but maybe I will get a response. My boy has a minijeep gokart 125cc. The original engine went out so I bought a replacement. Should have been a simple swap and go thing. Old and new engine look identical, same 2 plug ins/wires same colors everything. Got it all hooked up and when I finally got it started the gear selector shows the incorrect gear. More importantly it will not move at all no matter what "gear" is selected. For example when the selector shows (R) you can feel the engine lurch for a split second but then no movement. Same for when any other gear is selected. This is a brand new engine with like 5 minutes of idle time on it and I don't quite understand what may be wrong and I really don't want to take it apart if it is something more simple.
@motorcyclefixer
@motorcyclefixer 2 ай бұрын
It could be that the clutch plates are stuck together. The gear indicator if youre talking about a digital readout is just an electrical pickup on the end of the selector barrel Is r for reverse There's no reverse on the pitbike engines Does it have a seperate gearbox for reverse Its nigh on impossible to diagnose faults like this without looking at it really

But on my carb f650 from 99 there is a tiny horizontal hole in the head right next to the right spark plug. As i saw on some Fotos in the Internet it is normal and Stock, so the previous owner didnt do anything weird😂 But im very interested in the reason for the hole. Can you explain it to me or is it different with the head from the GS?

i have some chinese 125cc pit bike... its started to make like a metal slapping sound when riding, in every gear , but it stops making the noise when the bike is in neutral or with the clutch pulled in. im assuming something in the gearbox is ratting around like a tooth broken off maybe? hopefully its something obvious like that.... it runs well and still shifts and rides fine just that noise of impending doom is forcing me to do something before its too late. ever had some mystery noises like that before only while in gear? as far as i can tell its not the primary chain but possibly could be the cam tension chain

@@motorcyclefixer i have pulled the motor out planning to take it fully apart and look for anything wrong, but since the first step is to remove the timing chain and head i guess i should check the tension and see if its sloppy. i know i had this head off before buti can't remember how the tensioner works. theres bolts on the bottom but theyre all screwed in fully so there is no 'locknut' kind of adjustment from what i see. but i have no idea what im looking at since im new to this stuff. sorry for being vague but im wondering if you have any generic advice for me? i guess to start i should figure out what kind of motor im working on(aka which motor china cloned it from, if any) and find some documentation
