Howdy Dawgs,
Let me start off by saying TaoTao did it right! Last summer (~August) I dropped off an ATM50A1 to my son at MU MIZ!
, My son is no mechanic, I've brow beat him into changing the oil twice. No I did do a full PDI before delivering it.
Today I went to see him, he has 2971KM on the machine, he has beat the heck out of it. Today I adjusted the valve clearance and replaced some vacuum lines. That scooter is a TANK!
Some things I noted that I'm not experienced with:
The starter is not engaging all of the time, I can hear it spinning like a champ, let of the starter button, push it again and it starts up. Would that be the starter clutch?
Kick Starter is not working at all. are there any ususal suspects when it comes to these guys? During the winter he was using it quite a bit because the battery kept dying in the cold. I didn't get time to rip open the CVT case, maybe next week...
Thoughts?
