My Little Project - V50III plan to get done before my licence restriction ends
re the broken stud, I would drill through an m8 nut until it passes over the stud and have it welded across the top, then work it back and forth until it binds gradualy increasing the arc, i have freed many seized bollts this way over the years, if you continue to force the issue when binding starts you will risk shearing it off completely warming the surrounding ally up with a hot air gun wont do any harm either If you did happen to go down this route, disconnect your CDI and generator electricals prior to welding as a precaution apologies if you know this stuff already

at best it could just be your technique...you are new to the bike. Usually full choke and none to very little throttle is what's required At worst it could be down on compression and would need a compression test to verify...i expect this may be a bit out of reach for you at the moment though...how many miles has she done?

sellers are often helpful if you ask questions, after all they want to shift stuff! ask them about the bolt hole centres, the distance from these centres to the end of the plunger when it's pressed in etc etc you can then check these dimensions against your frame fixings and the tab of the stand that presses the plunger etc
