Ok ended up working on helping rebuild a Deck all weekend so did not get out to give it a ride until tonight. Perfect 78 degree day. Got my helmet on put GPS on bike since I rely on that for an accurate speedo. So I take and buzz around town for a bit all is going good. Stop fill up with premium gas head out of town out a gradual hill I was topping out at about 53 mph I am thinking damn this still sucks I went out about 3 miles turned around at side road stopped and it stayed running HUGE plus. I am stopped at stop sigh just sitting there and realize I was not only going up hill a bit but then I was also bucking a wind..... LOL So I head back was up over 63 mph. So I cruise back through town head out the other end of town head out to a town called Avoca it is about 10 miles away and the road to there is pretty much a nice level road and the wind was more of side wind than front or back wind. Head out stayed nice and steady 55-57 mph out and BACK.
So tomorrow it is suppose to be upper 70s again so I am thinking I am going to give it a try and take it to work tomorrow for the ultimate test. That is what I got it for in the first place. 56 miles ONE WAY..... so it is do or DIE tomorrow.....

Well took the original carb that came on my scooter apart the yahoo that had it before me had obviously taken it apart and put a couple of pieces in backwards. One problem I had with this carb is the fact the A/F screw would not stay set it was very loose. Well this new SUPER EXPENSIVE Carb I got had all the tamper proofing shit on it. Including the damn A/F screw was able to get it out with a pair of needle nose. Good part is that I was able to use the Spring and rubber washer from it on the old carb and now the A/F mixture screw stays put. Checked the jets and reinstalled on scooter. Started up seems to be running great. Once I get all the plastic back on can take it out and give it a whirl see how it goes. Probably wont be until weekend but keeping my fingers crossed that all is good.

Well I have redone the valve adjustment and it still made no difference it idles then you go to give it gas and it stumbles and wants to dies. When I do get it to rev up when the idle comes down it wants to die.

I just got back the POS Roketta. I have not had it to give a chance tinker with until tonight. So got brand NEW carb It is a Genuine CVK with the Kilhin(sp) logo on the side. Anyway I took it apart right away and checked the Diaphram and such before I installed it. Anyway got it warmed up rev it up a litttle bit it settled down then just started running like crap again. So I am going to Try doing a Valve adjustment on it again and try it one last time. If that does not take care of it the thing is 100% gone. Im done beating my head against the wall with this POS.

Start by Checking your Fuses. I am betting you have a blown fuse.

No start it up warm it up. Then adjust the Valves while it is running.

Yes I have....didn't see anything,with the naked eye...how would you find a pin hole??? this scoot ran great a month ago..I then tore it down to do some work on the swingarm bushings..Then put it back together & on the first ride,it starts doing this.....I did have the airbox off to work on swingarm bushings.... I had one that looked good I held it up to the light and just pulled out a bit all the way around the edges and that explosed the little pin holes the light shines through. Believe me I know these CHINO Scoots can be the most frustrating things around. I am suprised I have any hair left on my head. |

I know it may be a long shot but I have been having a lot of the same issue as you. I know it just started for you. but have you by chance checked the Diaphram in the carb by chance. Could be small pin holes.

Its good for you to know how to take it apart anyway just for doing maintenance on it. Belt replacement and changing out rollers/sliders.
