My 50cc KEEWAY motorcycle has a problem with the kickstarter and gear selector.

Fixing my 50cc KEEWAY's kickstarter

Subject to mechanical failures, the kick-start is easily revised. Common problems encountered spar the bikers who use it are:

• The kick is stuck at the bottom:
If the pedal does not come up, the problem is most likely with the return spring. It is then necessary to determine if it is out of its housing or broken.

• The kicker is blocked at the top:
Can you no longer operate the pedal? The problem probably stems from wear. The pieces that make up the kick-start get tired. The nut, the spring and the rock are often involved.

• The kick is difficult to operate:
In this situation, greasing and greasing your mechanical parts is usually sufficient.

• The kick has no effect:
Air holes can cause your crankcase to decompress. Your pedal then spins in a vacuum, making it impossible to start your engine.

• The kickstarter does not drive the engine:
Your clutch is stuck and the kick-start does not stick to the engine; the clutch pinion is probably the cause.

Adjusting my 50cc KEEWAY's gear selector and brake pedal

Your best bet is to wear your usual motorcycle boots so that a quarter-coat fit. You should be able to slide your left foot without too many contortions under the selector. Be careful, do not fall into the opposite excess either: if you have to take your foot very far to go up a gear, it is too high. Our advice for a good positioning: when you move your boot forward by sliding on the footrest, it must pass naturally over the selector, without stumbling over it.

To adjust the position of the selector speed, if it is mounted on the crenellated axle, loosen its clamping screw to take it out and put it back at your convenience. If not, loosen the locknut so that you can play with the link. It is still best not to have to lift your whole leg or twist your foot down to change gears. Depending on your size and your shoe size (as well as the thickness of the soles of your boots) you can modify the angular position of the gear selector. You can change the position of a linkless direct selector by changing it on its cranial axis. Completely unscrew the clamping screw of the selector, take it out and replace it shifted as you see fit. a selector Has a screw / nut system between the selector and its input shaft in the gearbox. This allows the height of the selector. Loosen the lock / nut (s), choose your position by turning the central axis, tighten.

Likewise, adjust the height of the brake pedal, so that it is just below your sole when your foot is in front of the footrest.
