When they say its the neighbour who broke it, most of the time its them but they are ashamed to admit it 😂😂

[@kingbenji777]

Not In my case. I actually can relate to the poor guy 😅😂

[@fixienick]

This isn't the first time Paul has tried to explain that he doesn't know how to work a rotary telephone 😂 keep up the good work guys!

[@Scooterswapshop]

facts, thanks!

[@tonyh2596]

I love how Paul has a mischievous curious smile 90% of the time.

[@Scooterswapshop]

you need to watch what you are saying on here Elizabeth this is your only warning

[@Scooterswapshop]

next thing like this your removed

[@A.Hisham86]

that crankshaft, is definitely reparable, I'll repairer it like nothing, in my work shop, using CNC machine.

[@JDMz]

Haha😂😂😂😂

[@roywalls5595]

I was there when live chat with Rolling Wrench! I like watching Rolling Wrench talk about scooter reviews and engine rebuild!💯

[@Scooterswapshop]

Right on!

[@roywalls5595]

@@Scooterswapshop I never meant Rolling Wrench face to face yet because I am looking a way for drive up there to Colorado but first need save up for long trip and get better motorcycle because 2007 Piaggio mp3 250 IE not made long drives!

[@Scooterswapshop]

what's the reason?

[@jay_tarantula899]

Also. My go to pizza is extra bacon+ extra cheese plus mushrooms

[@paulbudford]

The parts to replace a crank are not so expensive. But if you don't have the ability to change it yourself, the Labour charge is very high. I think this poor guy won't do that again.

[@Scooterswapshop]

yep this is why we made the video EDUCATION! Hope to save a few cranks

[@terrycolley6482]

I like how you diss on the 'home' mechanic. I was given a SYM VS150 (150cc 4 valve cush mounted GY6 style engine) that had run just long enough to get home from the 'professional' scooter shop after having a new belt fitted. He couldn't be arsed taking it back and it sat in his garage for a couple of years until he gave it to me. Looks like they might've tightened the variator nut whilst the belt was down in the valley so it didn't actually get tightened metal to metal (i.e up against the boss and crank shoulder). Of course soon as the belt moved up the variator faces the nut is loose as. Destroyed the splines on the variator driven pulley and the crankshaft. There was about 1.5 - 2mm of crank spline left but the only way I could get the new variator driven pulley to go in far enough to engage with what spline was left was to machine the boss down 2.5mm. This now means the kickstart throw out gear no longer reaches the engagement dogs on the variator face and it has changed the gearing characteristics a little but it's up and running without a full stripdown to replace the crank. And all this because it was fixed by a 'professional'. I'm a neighbour BTW. LOL. Incidentally the driven pulley was all alloy, yes, even the centre spline section. Not sure if the shop fitted that too but the genuine SYM item I bought had a steel centre with the female spline. It alone cost 4x what a complete variator assembly can be bought for ebay. Go figure.

[@Scooterswapshop]

Pretty sure you took something out of context. There’s incapable mechanics at shops and in the garage

[@JonahNAloha]

Aloha Friday,…… what pizza you want for today? What topping? Will that complete yo odor?

[@jay_tarantula899]

Ooof. My 233 ate 2 drive faces because it was missing the kickstart gear.

[@jamesesteban5973]

Wouldn’t it be possible to use a round die to re cut the crank threads to the next down sized nut and then purchase a matching nut of a softer steel just like the factory nut? I am not sure how successful re cutting the threads would be but it would save a lot of money not having to basically rebuild the engine. What do you guys think?

[@Scooterswapshop]

so put a nut on it that cant put any tq too.... how would that be helpful? it would snap off or strip those threads its not hard or expensive if you do it your self. to replace the crank.

[@jamesesteban5973]

@@Scooterswapshop I’m just saying to cut new threads to a slightly smaller size and use a slightly smaller nut with the same hardness as the stock nut. It would likely still handle the torque spec for the crank. It would also have a total cost of like $1 for a new nut? Is there some fatal mistake I’m missing. I’m just throwing out the idea as a possible low cost solution

[@Berring1000]

Pretty sure that here was problem caused bcs of using wrong thread pitch...most of the stores will have 1.50 "of the shelf" while crankshaft is 1.25.

[@SthsdecowboyCowboy]

Yeah James.. what I did was rethread the shaft and drill a small hole through the shaft at the end, and then use a thinner nut, that will pass the the hole, and simply add a small cotter pin..

[@jaketheseasnake1638]

I love how he explains how much work it is but not the Pacific coast of the the bill for the customer to know lol

The pacific coast?

You don’t use tire shine on a motorcycle or motor scooter that’s a huge safety issue unless you like wiping out on corners or only drive in a straight line lol

[@Scooterswapshop]

Of course

[@DankUrbanBoss]

CANT WAIT

[@Scooterswapshop]

thanks

[@christopherdarrough2667]

Seen this a 100 times people stripping the threads off the crank i also seen some funny looking fixes that people have done one guy welded the nut back on you have know how line all that stuff back up right if not your out a crankshaft

[@Scooterswapshop]

crank is the only right way to fix

[@christopherdarrough2667]

@@Scooterswapshop yup and people don't realize the labor involved it's not a fun job especially on a TaoTao I use the hot cold method for along time then I broke down and bought a tusk crankshaft puller makes it's a little bit easier but still labor-intensive

[@mrpantur7280]

my motorcycle mechanic who I have been loyal to for 5 years destroyed my crankshaft because he had been using an impact gun to tighten the variator bolt. it cost over 1k to fix and put me out of work for a week and I lost 800 because I'm self employed. moral of the story don't trust anyone even the bike mechanic lol.

[@roywalls5595]

Scooterswapshop I think already gives those two motorbike away 4 months ago!

You guys just, Wacky as hell... I love it. But everything in this video is why I work on my own shit. Also because there are no scooter shops around here.

[@Scooterswapshop]

things wouldn't get filmed most is sporadic, Patrick adjusts the audio but Paul talks super quiet and cant have everyone mixed up all day for maybe 5 min of a clip. Just too much work for a random clip that is just a tiny bit quiet and ALOT of this was filmed on Brandons phone.
