More like a BRAK Sound while getting up to speed with WOT. On slow take off and building speed, Everything sounds great. I'll try and get a video. Thanks

Thanks Guys, Really Appreciate it!!!
Looks like i'm good on that. The other problem I'm having is that at WOT I'm hearing bad sound from either the exhaust or air filter. Thinking maybe I need a gasket for the exhaust. Only does it when i'm riding....

I have a 2011 500cc VIP Future Champion. Got it from a friend of mine and wasn't running. Changed the oil (10W40) and did a valve adjustment (.003 Intake & Exhaust, Cold) When I first start it (no problem starting) it sounds really good. Once it warms up it has a small ticking noise. The gas tank was already full and the previous owner had used 89 octane. Any clue on what it could be?
Thank in advance.

Turns out it was a bad Connecting Rod.  |

Scooter didn't run when I first got it. I had to replace the carburetor and Stator. I got it to start but it's got a bad knock and wont stay running.
The shaving are small. After I changed the oil and tried starting it, when I checked the oil it was almost like i never changed it. Looked all dark.
@ kz1000st I think you may be right.

The scooter has about 3,100 miles. I just got it this past weekend and this was the first oil change. Supposedly the previous owner changed the oil a few times before giving it to me.

Hello I'm a Newbie to this. I have a 2011 VIP Future Champion. As i was doing an oil change to the scooter I noticed that there was quite a bit of metal shavings on the small filter and in the oil. Is this Normal?
Thanks in Advance.
