Here is a picture of the right side of my engine. Also I am including a picture of what I think is the starter. Alley, you said to remove the cover on the right side of the engine. Do I need to remove the cover on the left side of my engine? If that is my starter is it possible I caused the issue with the starter by bumping it or something when I put the new rear tire on? ![]()

Mmmm. I'll let everyone know once I get it apart.
Alley. What do you think about putting the video upload instructions on a sticky at the front of one of the forums? I couldn't see the instructions there.

I'm not the expert that some of you are on here. It would be good if you could listen to it starting. How do I post a video so you can listen?
It sounds like the starter turns over but the piston isn't going up and down.
I did not have the cover on the right side off. I changed the rear tire.
When I finished putting the rear wheel back on I went for a test ride of 1 mile. I had a low battery from not being ridden in a while. When combined with the other issue I posted about (stalls at stops with brakes) I had to start it every time I stopped. I started it a few times each time it stalled until it finally left me there and wouldn't start.

Just in case a low battery was contributing to this issue I put it on a trickle charge until the charger turned green.
After doing that I still have the same issue.
I would like to post a video so you can listen to the issue to help diagnose it. How can I post a video?

When the start switch is turned on the starter turns but the engine doesn't turn over. Any ideas how to solve this?
Thanks. |

I now need some help with two issues:
1) Whenever I stop using my brakes my engine dies rather than idling and I need to start it again. How do I get it to idle through a stop?
2) My right brake lever (front) has too much free play won't grab.
Thanks again sharing from those years of scooter wisdom. |

Okay. The tire (Pirelli sl26) is on and Alley you will be glad to hear spin balanced.
I wasn't able to use a vise grip on the caliper bolt but was able to rotate the caliper with the other bots out.
Thanks everyone.

It looks like that's what the last person did and the bolt head is already pretty round.

Will do!
JCT do you balance the sl 26's when you have installed them?
