  • Connexions elèctriques: Verify all wiring harness connections are secure and free from corrosion.
• Stator Overcharging:
  • If experiencing issues with overcharging (e.g., blown CDI, voltage regulator, or coil), the supplied stator might be overcharging. This may require checking the stator output and potentially adjusting pickup mounting holes or replacing the stator/voltage regulador.
• Engine Noise / Premature Wear:
  • Oil Level/Quality: Always ensure correct oil level and use recommended 10W40 oil. Low oil or incorrect oil can lead to rapid wear of internal components like the crankshaft.
  • Defectes de fabricació: In rare cases, manufacturing defects can occur. If significant engine noise or failure occurs shortly after proper installation and initial oil change, contact customer support.
