Re: Scooter Parts International-buyer beware.

Yea, I've had to call them in the past and got an attitude from some guy in shipping. I just took my biz elsewhere after that. Sorry to hear of your trouble also. Thanks

Re: Bike won't start after oil plug comming off while riding

It looks to me like something got sucked up into the cylinder through the transfer port and hung on to the side of the piston on the way up. You better find out what it was. You can't run that like it is.
Needs a re-bore and new parts.

Re: Belt loose, belt issues?

Try using the magic marker trick to measure belt travel on both the variator and opposing drive pulley. Put lines on the inner and outer area with a magic marker. The belt will wear off the area it travels in. Then replace any parts that are suspect.

Yea. But it seems like a 45 pilot is already big. Could it have something to do with running better once it warms up? Since choke is supposed to be for cold starts. Not sure.
Possible air leaks. Leak-down test will tell you.
