Lots of little things wrong with this one Mark. When the electric starter was not working on my project scooter, I did the normal checks with a multi meter. Just to be sure it was the solenoid though, I bridged the terminals with a wire. Started straight away. Good to double check sometimes it you can before ordering.

Hey mark great video. I opened my variator on my piaggio typhoon only to find out the previous owner lied to me. There were 4 5.5g rollers and 2 7g rollers. well i guess that explains the vibrations in my foot panels i think. I really appreciate your videos which gave me confidence to tackle the problem myself.

Loving the videos. I got a small problem mines is smoking bad and it brakes up and cuts out and wont be able to start it again till the next day with some carb cleaner in the intake. Im currently using the blue 2 stroke but been told that makes them smoke more than red mixture or will it be to rich and need to lean it out a bit?
@marksavage6 жыл бұрын
It shouldn't be over smoking as it mixes with the carb as the petrol comes in with the pump It should like your rings may have gone ? However if you are have to clean carb all the time and guess clean plug then it's over mixing and needs tuning as in my tuning video ,I have over 70 speed fight video to help plus another channel with all of them on a play list

Hi mark , i have a Gilera Storm 2t 07 plate , i ran into a problem when ive done my upgrades , i have a Polini Hi-Speed variator in 5gram rollers - the blue contra spring in the clutch assembly and red (medium 1.4) clutch springs and a stage 6 pro rep exhaust which powerband is at 1050rpm , the bikes pull of is really slow until powerband ? I was wondering you can give me a hand on what i can do , if you need a video of me driving it and showing you and example im more then happy of you can shed some light on what i should do , was thinking lighter rollers 4.8grams , also i really enjoy your videos as there is no informative moped mechanics about that know there stuff , keep up the good work :)

hi bud thanks for watching ok with your bike 5g rollers are light and really should be pulling away well, what jet are you running and did you up jet it ? with the sports exhaust you might have to too get more fuel into the head to get it going along with a tune up otherwise work your way backwards and put on the old clutch and see how it run then the vatiator and so on then you might find out where its going wrong hope that help mark
