A week ago an other traffic partner thought it would be a good idea to turn left without stopping, taking my right of way, I was going straight and crashed frontal in his side.
Fortunately only material demage, as is:
-front mudguard in shards (took used one, repainted)
-windshield broken
(a new FACO came)
-RH indicator broken
(used one taken)
-fork bent, see comparison old/new in vise
(used one installed, pls see pics)
-front plastic cover broken on several places
(I welded, reinforced and repainted)
As I had the scoot on the bench already, a drop of coolant from this telltale hole said "waterpump service".
(pls see pics)
At this 150cc motor it is NOT neccessary to remove the stator shield! Oil and coolant have to be drained.
Waterpump has its own housing and comes off easily.
-to seperate the pump housing drive a bolt M6x40 into this drain hole, gently pry lid and housing apart
(pls see pics)
-service kit comes with new bearings, o-ring, spring coil and new , also ceramic, gasket/s.
-white, ringshaped part is this ceramic gasket
-waterpump wheel has LEFTHAND TREAD!!
WARNING: this waterpump repair requires special tools like, several sizes of longneck bearing extractors of internal type. Without those it is impossible to rebuilt this waterpump because bearings and impeller potty are clued in.
My opponent was reasonable and payed without lamenting for parts and labour.
All in all, if I wouldn't have done this repair on my own, the scoot would be totaled. Spare parts (new) and labour would be double the scoots value.
