I just tried to put it together again for the 4th time, and when I gave it trottle it makes a really wierd sound and slowly moves forward. I think I ruined the whole f***ing sh** now. Im f***ing sick of this, I hae done everything right and nothing works.

1st of all dont panic, it prob just a minor issue or fault somewhere in your reassembly.

Did you fit all the rollers back in correctly?

Did you make sure you torqued up the variator nut properly so it cant come loose?

As for the plastic washer thing, i wrongly thought u meant the ramp plate guides not a washer thing. I cant think why you would need the washer so if you fitted that then maybe try without it?

Is the smooth boss length the exact same length as your old one? Exact same? Of its shorter by even 0.5-1mm then you need a washer under the variator nut to space it.

I have a race variator too but not Malossi and mine had no spacer or washer other than the washer that was already under my variator nut?

I doubt you have done anything terminal or bad so try not to worry, we've all been there in the past when we were learning to work on our own scoots.

What was wrong do you think?

We all had that "Why the f*** did i not just leave it alone" or  "Oh crap now ive broken it for sure" moments, most of them are minor mistakes or have a simple solution so now i tend to just leave it, walk away, have a coffee/beer and a smoke and calm down. After 10-15 mins things seem a whole lot better  ;D

We live and learn every day bro  :)

Keep us posted how you get on once you can test it. We've all got your back, we CAN fix it if it breaks  :)

I had one of those holy sh** moments last night, big time. The trick is not to wait too much longer than fifteen or 30 mins or overnight, like I did, before figuring out the extent of damage. Then you start to take it out on the girlfriend, wife, kids, and dog hahaha. People can usually tell from my demeanor how well tinkering with my scooter went. If I went well I'll buy ya a beer, if not I will I will throw a beer at your face.  ;D
