i had one with a little over 10,000 miles before i sold it, the one i have now is a 2 stroke and had almost 8000 before i put bbk on it, like everyone is saying do the maintenance and don't beat the hell out of it and it could last a long time

i was just at the local scooter shop the other day and was talking to the mechanic that works there, he was telling me that when installing a bbk on a 4 stroke scooter that you should advance the cam shaft by two teeth, has anyone ever heard of anything like this it didn't make any sense to me to do that, he said that they run better when this is done, i would think this would throw the timing off, any opinions on this one, just didn't seem right to me, i ride a 2 stroke so this is not an issue, but like i said it didn't sound right

Probably because it would cost them a few more cents per scooter times a zillion units. exactly |

i replaced the regulator and the battery, the regulator had overcharged the battery and killed it, it was so bad it started leaking acid, the voltage with the scooter running should be around 13 volts or a little more at idle mine goes up to about 14.5 with the engine revving, when testing it with voltmeter you should have one lead the positive side of the battery and one on the negative. if the regulator looks burnt i would replace it

may be your regulator stopped working just had to replace mine recently had all kinds of weird problems headlights blew replaced them and they would flicker constantly then my battery died and instrument cluster went crazy would not idle right at start up, would stall if i dd not give it gas, replaced regulator and battery and all is good now, easiest way to check is to put the battery in and check voltage with a voltmeter should be 13 volts at idle mine according to manual 13-14 volts when the regulator was bad it was 10 to 17 volts 17 when i revved the engine

you can get a tap and die set to make new threads, don't think i would run it like that could cause a lean condition and do damage

check your voltage at your battery it could be a regulator problem, mine went on my scooter and was blowing bulbs quick checked the voltage at the battery and was 14 at idle if i revved it a little it would shoot up past 17. in my manual it was supposed to be between 13 to 14. i would start with that if that checks out go from there
