Yep, you warmed the engine up. When you turned it off- no cooling, heat soaking through a touch more expansion,just enough to lock. Hope all is good now.

yeah, hope so, if not you know where the problem is. Is that touching on the moulding by the starter?

Yeah, I was worried about grinding it at first but then I just thought "bugger it, do it". Then I found out that the other side of the part you are grinding is only the outside anyway. So, if you did go through it wouldn't do any harm.

Ya i got a basket case vino 125 the guy literaly  cut the cover off of to save weight,although i think that was the downfall of the motor he caught a rock in the drive face and kickstarter at speed.

Grind away batman just dont go crazy! It will run without a cover,if you start with your finger on the starter gear it will run,but any outside interference at speed could be Bad!!!The reason for the cover.Think of a belt driven harley,great ti'll a dingo gets stuck in there!!! HA! Someone should put the keyboard down  ;)

Hey batman, I just replied on the other thread. I just had a thought (few and far between), the variator is not still touching the case is it. Just thinking not enough to lock but just drag.
