Posted September 17, 20177 yr Hi. From Newton le Willows. Any mechanics nearby? Big end on scooter has gone. all plastic stripped. need help showing me how to remove engine, strip it and do repair. Running a 180 head kit.
September 17, 20177 yr Moderator really, that's your first post? you want a free engine rebuild from a nearby mechanic on an undisclosed make and model. Mr Haynes can show you how but the book is around £17
September 18, 20177 yr Figure if you can put a 180- head kit on it you can take it apart no..! I mean it's only a few bolts that hold most bike engines in, would have been nice to know what bike it was on tho.

September 18, 20177 yr Ah. Come on guys where's yer Christmas spirit!! & he might be disabled, I'll give him the benifit of the doubt seeing as I'm no where near Newton le Willows Well its not that far really but I know fuck all about scooters
September 18, 20177 yr Author prolapsed disc and sciatica. cant get leg over a motorcycle saddle any more lol. hence i have a 125/180 yamaha majesty, 2004. paid a mechanic to do head kit but ive moved since. am in a downstairs flat with no garage anymore. i am willing to pay; was thinking of a semi/retired person who could take time to show me whilst still getting paid for job. haynes doesnt show how to tell if a part is used or beyond use and so faulty. i have a 50cc aprilia which i use daily, the yamaha is my rat scooter. at a later date i will strip all plastic off, extend it and put a motorbike front end on. with help. rather than pay £80 i will fabricate a hale bale carrier to mount top box on. i dont drink or do drugs, go to football matches etc so im happy to throw money at scooter knowing it will never sell enough to recover costs. but what price on a fun pass-time and being different?

September 19, 20177 yr Glad to see you sticking around and having some input after your warm welcome hippy, hope you get some joy finding a mechanic to sort your scoot out, their a great bunch on here once you get to know them.
