What Causes the Loud Noise in a Scooter Motorcycle?
1 Answers
Scooter motorcycles commonly experience loud noise due to the following faults: 1. Loose timing camshaft bearing. 2. Severe wear on the working surfaces of the timing cam and valve rocker arm. 3. Broken rear clutch spring. 4. Improper belt selection or clutch acceleration lag, resulting in the sound of the belt hitting the casing. 5. Severe wear on the front clutch pulley weights. 6. Worn electric start clutch (noise is more prominent during electric start). 7. Incorrect ignition timing, causing the sound of the valve hitting the piston (commonly seen in post-repair vehicles).
