I have a 3 year old GV and I ride it all year round, this winter as I was coming home it starting making a noise that sounds metalic. I took it in to the dealer and he believes that I am loosing the crankshaft bearing. I had synthetic oil in it and always change the oil at 5000 mile. Was wondering if anyone eles that has a GV has ever experienced this or heard of it?

Maybe your cam chain is also stretched and is flapping around in the crank case.

Finally I've finished the repair on my scooter. Now the bike sounds a lot better than before, now that I have a new timing chain and a new piston. I had to take my cylinder to be honed smooth to eliminate the scratches. The chain and piston are GENUINE KYMCO parts.
