So for those of you who have been helping me, I finally got my scooter running and it drives like a dream. But of course I've only discovered a new problem with it. The crankcase where the kick start is, is making an awful noise. After taking a few laps around my development I noticed a crazy rattling sound coming from the kickstart. To the touch the kickstart and the casing are really hot, but after letting it idle for a few moments it cools off and the rattling stops....Any clues? Attachments:

Does the kick start work ? They are wimpy and easy to break compared to a motorcycle . Does the rattle increase with RPMs ? Remove the kick start and CVT cover in order to inspect the parts . How many miles are on the scooter ? Roller weights can make a rattle sound like a bad bearing . If you get a stethoscope you can listen while gently revving it up on the center stand . Do not have it to where it moves around on the CS or center stand . Is it not unheard of for a weight or two to fall out of the variator . Does it perform the same ?
