Howdy everyone, it's me again. Not sure if this really merits a new thread, but I hope you'll forgive me if you feel strongly that it does not. Original thread is here: scooterdoc.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=150cc&thread=5141Equipped with a cavalcade of tools and a bevy of youtube tutorial videos, I set about to adjust the valves on my scooter. It was frustrating until I was able to actually remove the flimsy plastic shell exposing the valves, then things went much more smoothly. In the end, however, the noise persists. I even checked the fan on the right side to see if anything had infiltrated it's plastic barriers; there was nothing. To assist in this diagnosis, I've constructed a crudely edited video using my iPhone. The video can be found here: The scooter actually sputters when I let off the gas, which is really worrying me. I have been really impressed with this community and I'm extremely grateful for all the help you've provided me thus far; hopefully I can get this figured out.

Hey everyone,
First time scooter owner here with a 150cc Chinese 2010 Roketa scooter. Seemingly without provocation, my scooter started making a strange clicking noise over the normal purr of the motor after having driven it over 1,400 miles. The noise began suddenly right after I started it up last week and has continued ever since.
The noise seems to be emanating from the motor and seems to be agitated by acceleration and by bumps in the road. It almost sounds like a baseball card hitting the spokes of a bicycle or like something is loose. The paranoid in me fears the worst and I'm hesitant to take it on the road (but it's my only way to get to work everyday).
I'll google what technical terms I'm not familiar with, but keep in mind that you're speaking to someone who isn't as well-read in technical jargon as he'd like. Regardless, any help or insight you'd be able to provide would be TREMENDOUSLY appreciated. Thanks mucho in advance!
