Lefty/Mike: I need help. Thought my belt had crapped the bed but when I pulled the cover it is in great shape. Crank up scoot and belt spins. accelerate and variator goes along but no drive to rear wheels. Any advice? vr, Lee

Lee, is the Clutch pulley spinning as well? I HOPE it is only the CLUTCH that it is NOT throwing out the pads and grabbing the BELL. You are going to have to take the CLUTCH Bell OFF and check if there is something wrong with the CLUTCH Pads NOT coming out. Just take the NUT off on holding the BELL and the WHOLE ASSEMBLEY pull right off.
If it is NOT the CLUTCH then it is NOT GOOD NEWS. Lefty

Lefty I was afraid you were going to tell me that. I'm heading out now. Yes the clutch pulley is spinning.

Lee, Before you take it off, check if the SPROCKET on the Engine by the MUFFLER is turning and the Chain is moving. It could also be in the Gear Box DIFFERENTIAL. Here is what the Clutch looks like: Lefty

Lefty what is the trick to getting the nut off? Also the spring was recessed (I could see it). I tapped a rubber mallet on the clutch and I now have forward motion. So I think my spring is sticking but I'll have to get the clutch off to verify.

Lee, One more thing that I thought of Work the REVERSE CABLE the gear may not have grabbed the gear and it may be stuck in limbo no reverse or forward. It happened to me when my cable broke and replaced it with an new one. It would not go forward or backwards. Lefty

GREAT!! probably the spring came off or BROKE. If you have an IMPACT WRENCH that works great that is How I take mine off and on. But you also have to hold the BELL so it does not turn on you I use a OIL FILTER WRENCH I went to the Auto parts and got one that would fit. That also works for the Variator to hold the Fan if it rotates on you. Lefty

Prior to the rubber mallet fix the sprocket did not turn (of course). On jack stands the throttle resonse and the wheel turn is about right...I checked it several times in the air. I just went out and ran it and it seems to work fine. If the spring were broke it should act up right? Should I go ahead and pull the clutch anyway? vr, Lee

FANTASTIC!!! That is Damn good news lee, just the CLutch Swing Arms got stuck and where not being thrown out. I would pull it off and check to see if one of the Springs is off or broke or just getting stuck if they are good then Put some Lihiuium grease where it slides in and out to help make them slide in and out easier. They could be a little rusty maybe some water got in there or moisture and causeing some binding. Lefty

Lee, I think I ran to just about every problem that there is, so I just have to bring it back up front from the back of my brain(HAHA). Glad it was just the Clutch pads sticking. Ride Safe my friend Lefty

parsonsj11 Just click on his name and send a PM....Jim always replies...On the market for a trike or scoot? I would buy from him... Mike I seem to not express what I mean in most cases. I was not aware we can click on his name. My bigger concern when I saw this happen was anyone hitting the net like I did are going to get the thing I did which may cost him money, would not like to see that happen. he is one of us, he helps, nice guy, and knows his stuff from what I have seen.

Jim, I think that this site was having a small problem with one of it's servers. I saw some weird things happening with the banner ads. They would stop and go to a the site not available message kind of randomly.
