Question: Is all the grease needed? I know it acts as a coolant as well as lube.. but in some videos I have seen there is no grease around the rollers

I am starting to here a tapping noise in my engine... that is when it first starts.. if i rev it for a lil while and let it warm up it kinda seems to fade... if i shoot a short vid of the sound can someone tell me if i need to adjust my valves? I have watched the short video on how to do it prolly 20 times now... but it seems to simple...

Radiator is directly behind front tire and yes coolant resivor is under seat...
As far as the fuse box goes.. It DOES NOT have one... people keep tellin me.. look under the seat.. look here look their.. but its not there! If it had one.. I would have found it by now.. I did however find a place where I presume the fuse box cound have been wires to.. but it is an empty plug.... no other end.. no spot under seat for it.. I think alley is correct in saying.. that is it setup like a 150cc especially since it sets on a 150cc frame... thanks for all the input

GOOD NEWS!!! ONLY THANKS TO SCOOTER DOC PEOPLE!! YAY.... I hooked everything back up...(without thermostat) and BAM! the fan kicks on... the temp stays at just over the middle line.. and just to double check I popped the radiator cap and OUCH!!!!!!!! lmao!! Second GOOD NEWS!.. I found out that my starter button was hanging on by a thread lol... hardly any contact... just pushed er back on tell it clicked... and now I am having NO TROUBLE starting it every time!! THANKS Bad news... I cant take her for a ride until I get both the housing for thermostat ordered and a thermostat. where the housing is half broke... it is leaking a lil bit... might as well get it done right now instead of having a broken bike later!! Got the entire housing and thermostat for 35 bux after shipping off ebay! Now just to wait  I am gonna order both from ebay... the day they get in I will let yall know! and post pics of completed project! and again THANKS SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!! |
