My Taishan and some gearing problems

[hypojam]

My little taishan is having problems at low speeds The bikes transmission is lowering the gears too quickly, thats causing the thing not too rev enough, so when im on a slight hill i cant gain any acceleration

Is there any easy way of fixing this and is anyone else having same problem

mine has been like that since i ve had it but i have just had some rollers delivered today so hopefully that will make it better.

I'ev also got some rollers to fit but can't get the bloody nut off the Driving pully.

Good luck!!

Let me know how you get on.

just had my rollers fitted at motorcycle shop and the scooter is the same as before, i put 6gram ones in what weight have you got

[BillyGreen1973]

I have a set of 5.1gm and a set of 6gm, so from what you have said I may as well just put the 5.1's in.

How long did it take them? and did they charge much?

My stupid taishan! It was going about 10MPH up this slight hill I think the cold weather was affecting it quite badly

Ive readjusted the tappets! the intake valve gap looked a bit tight Might explain why i was having so much trouble getting it started when it was hot Hopefully it might cure the up hill struggle problem

i would go with the lighter ones i wish i had, it cost £25 and it tuck about 40mins

My rollers came in a pack. The dude I bought I bought them from said that some trial and error will happen, and that different combinations of rollers should be tried. First I have to get my scooter running again and get a hold of an impact wrench to pull the stupid variator!
