Re: Stator
The picture looks better than it is, I've repaired stators and if I use them on a scooter I would charge for a refurbed stator not a new one and tell the person it's refurbed. It was the stator causing the timing probs, it checked out ok on the multimeter but not in use, tried plug, HT lead and cdi ...

Re: Sx150
Choose the colour combination or single colour you like and do it like that, it's your scooter you'll be the one who's using it so have it how you like it and enjoy

Re: Stator
Forgot about this :oops: It's not my scooter, it's a mates Mugello 186, he just dropped it off at mine for new cables and asked if I'd check the timing and carb set up etc. It had been done last year by a dealer who claims to have fitted a new AF midweight flywheel, stator etc, it was about 21 deg a...

Re: How can I slow down a piaggio nrg 50
At a guess you'd need either 5.3 or 6.4 rollers depending on the year, To restrict it you can tack a washer in the exhaust down pipe, start with a small hole and try out for the speed, open it up a little if it's to slow. It would have been upjetted when the exhaust was fitted, I think the standard ...

Re: Lambretta Flywheel Timing Marks
Is it the 2 notches on the flywheel that are in a different place? If so I would never rely on them to be accurate as I've seen them in different positions, easiest way to see if the arrows on the flywheel are in the same place is to align the keyway for the woodruff key's up and then you'll be able...
