Re: Exhaust spraying options

Decent heat proof paints need to go in the over at about 200c for an hour once it is air dry Here one I did last week. Sent from my BND-L21 using Tapatalk http...

Re: Exhaust spraying options
Loaded. Do you have a pressure washer? For about 40 quid you can buy a water blasting attachment and blast stuff yourself. No but I could get my hands on one though. I need to take the exhaust off anyway so I can see what sort of condition its really in. The U bend is in far worse condition (no coa...

Exhaust spraying options
Hi All, I have been reviewing the state of the exhaust on my Li 150 today that I have been slowly restoring and sorting out bits on. I have found out its an AF Rayspeed which is good. However, its state isn't the best a fair bit of the paint has flaked off over the years and the U bend is looking ru...

Re: Flywheel fitting - too tight
Just one last question.... is there an easy way of telling the difference between and Li crank and a GP crank? without breaking open the engine?
Apologies for the schoolboy questions here and any help is always deeply appreciated.

Re: Flywheel fitting - too tight
Hi all, Thanks for taking time to respond. I will go back to the scoot during the week and will check out suggestions. I am pretty certain that the scoot has an Li crank, however possibly it does have a different crank. The scoot was a import, restored and then stored and ridden on a private road fo...

Re: Flywheel fitting - too tight
Hi there, The crank is an Li and yes the stator does fit inside the flywheel ok from what I can see.
I will have another look and I wont try and kick it over as that would cause damage.
Cheers and I will get back once I have had another look!

Flywheel fitting - too tight
Hi All, I have recently bought a 12v kit with new flywheel and stator plate etc for my li150. Having fitted the CDI and the regulator I then fitted the stator plate. When I fitted the flywheel it becomes almost impossible to turn once its hand tightened (almost feels like its locked) before its prop...
