fozzy41 9 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Hello mate, As others have said it is the flywheel. Have a look on flebay, there`s loads of brand new parts for no money, including flywheels. I have just got a minimoto myself, i actually swapped a pair of motocross boots which weren`t being used so the bike stands me at nothing. To be honest it`s a cracking little bike but took some getting going. I stripped the carb down to clean the old oil out which seperates from the petrol if stood for any length of time as well as putting a new mix of oil a petrol in. And just to prove how much of a barsteward they can be i tried starting it today after only being stood for 2 days and it wouldn`t have it. Anyway, good luck with it and remember to drain the petrol out if you don`t intend to use it for any length of time, at least then the oil won`t seperate in the carb and crank.
