Replying to the person that wants to know where the fuse is for his radio on the Roketa. It's an inline fuse 25A behind the front ferring. Need to take the ferring off in order to get to it.

Hi,
I am in the process of replacing the Drive Axle on my Roketa.
I have all the bolts out of the crankcase cover but was wondering if there is a special trick to getting it off. I know there's a gasket or seal but I can't seem to pull the cover off. Thank you in advance for any and all help.
Sincerely,
fnshnegrl

The shop made measurements for Roketa and took pictures. He told them since he didn't know if the rear hub or the splines on the engine were wrong . Roketa said they were going to ship the output shaft as they felt that would fix the problem. My problem is I don't know how hard that repair is and what would be a fair labor hour. Is it something we can do ourselves? Thanks again for all your time.

It's the 257 engine. Yes there is side to side play and the nut is tight, Spacer is not missing. That was one of the first things we checked before taking to that shop.

I sorry I may be using the wrong terminology. It is the shaft that the rear wheel goes on to. The rubbing noise was the caliper bracket was rubbing against the nut heads that are on the disc of the rear wheel. With the rear wheel off hthere is alot of play in it. They said and that it could either be the wrong wheel or the wrong shaft. Roketa supervisor said that the shaft would fix the problem. Does that sound about right? Sorry I do not know the right terminology.
Me with a very sad sad face

Hi,
I hope somebody can help me with a couple ??. I had just bought this Roketa new in February and still haven't ridden. Don't want to bore you with all the bull so I will try to say this as quick as I can. Got it and there was a rubbing noise from rear. Took it to a shop and got a hold of where I purchased it from. Has come down to Roketa putting the wrong drive shaft on when they built it. My question is how big of a job is it to replace the shaft. From the breakdown I've seen on this sight it doesn't look like it would be too hard to do. The reason I am asking is I don't want to get taken by this shop I took it to. I don't know them. They said they worked on Roketas but I really have my doubts. I even had to show them a few things which scared me. I found out that they have a person that works there that said he has worked on Roketas. Any way, this guy was talking about it's a really big job and it would probably cost me more in labor for him to fix it then what I paid for it. I'll bring it home and do it myself or blow the damn thing up before I let this guy have it. So, can anybody out there tell me approximately how many labor hours this job should take and just how hard it would be to do. Thanks in advance for any and all help you can give me.
Sincerely,
fnshnegrl
