not bad little quads just electrical nightmares. most if not all components are interchangeable with crf parts. I replaced the cdi, coil pack, carb all with honda crf parts and she's been running awesome ever since. I'm going to try and rebuild the top end with honda parts as well and hopefully everything is square as these engines are basically exact clones of honda engines. Roketa, taotao, kazuma etc they are all the same exact thing with a different name on them. Little bit of electronic upgrades and occasionally welding back together shitty metal and you're good to go.
Yeah they're pretty much Honda clone engines. Time to troubleshoot this one again. Repaired the starter and it ran for see real more months for my son. Now though, he was riding it the other day and it just died instantly and won't even turn over when I push the start button. My guess is the cdi box or ignition coil.
Its a high possibility thats it's the same thing then. I forgot to mention in the video that when you get it apart, even if its not the problem, its still a good idea to lube that starter chain real good. Ive seen a lot of these with a frozen starter chain. I guess due in part to that paper gasket on the cover. With a lot riding, water will get in and rust it tight, then the starter cant spin at all.
I don't mind the chinese bikes they usually go great and when something goes wrong with a part you can buy them pretty cheap plus i like working on them an learning how to fix em my kids love helping too
sKiTzMiCk 69 yes they are certainly great for kids. Adult riders may be too hard on them for them to last long. But for a kid, they're absolutely fine. This one lasted my son 2 and a half years with proper maintenance before he outgrew it.
I usually prefer to deep the chains, after washing in a bath of warm oil. Let it soak nice and well. Hang it to let the excess oil run out. Believe me gives years of trouble free use. ;-)
Hi guys my son has same bike, hit water hole an stalled the shitty wire air filter let’s water an mud in took it off cleaned it with gas changed oil , took spark plug out turned over engine blew gunk out hole new spark plug , fired right up
I think I can help as I've had mine on and off about 20 times now, lol. There are (on mine anyway) five 8 mm bolts around the perimeter of the cover (they are different lengths so lay them down in the same pattern they came from-- the one on the bottom is hard to see, use a mirror or feel for it), then when all bolts are out, take a smaller flat screwdriver and gently insert in the seam where the cover joins the case and just ease it apart a wee bit- then you have to tug firmly with both hands straight towards yourself as it is held in by magnetic force. You may have to twist and turn it to maneuver it out and away from the case. On my machine the stupid footrest is right in front of the stator cover so I have to really work to get it out of there- usually I have to pull it out towards me, then turn it clockwise and pull it down towards the ground to get it where it clears the footrest and I can lift it out and away. It will still be attached to the wiring harness by the pickup wires coming from the stator so don't tear those out. Also there is a thin gasket that will probably tear- you can order them on Amazon. Hope that helps.
tia sprague I soaked it in wd40 and the starter chain freed right up. I ended up reusing it instead of buying a new one. Put it all back together and it ran fine.
It may your starter, but could also be the battery. If you know with 100% certainty that its not the battery, then it probably is the starter or starter chain. The starter chains on these are notorious for seizing up because they're of cheaper metal quality. When my sons (one in video) wouldn't crank up, it just made a single clicking sound when I pressed the start button. I too thought it was the battery, but as the video shows, it was not.
Okay so mine I just put a brand new starter with chain and battery I have noting at all I’m getting power because my Neutral light is green but I do not get it to turn over at all not even a sound
I just bought one for my son, the cover you pulled off did it have a fill plug and drain plug? Im not sure if its for looks or does that hold any kind of oil
Yes the left side of the engine with the two silver bolt heads you can see. One is for the stator, but don't worry about those. They'll stay in place when you take the cover off. You'll see the stator on the inside when you get it off. May wanna clean it The only hard part is getting the starter chain back on the small sprocket. You have to loosen the starter from the right side to get the chain adjusted. Or at least I did. On my sons ATV shown here, the chain was locked up due to being cheap. A little WD40 fixed it. It's still running great ever since this video was taken with no problems.
You'll have to undo the starter bolts from the right side of the upper part of the engine case, (three bolts I think it was, maybe four) that way its loose. Don't take it off though, just leave it loose. Remove the left side engine case as shown in this video then you will see your starter sprocket. You'll be able to work the chain on sprocket with the starter itself loosened up. Once the starter chain is on the sprocket, tighten the starter back up first. (This may take two sets of hands, one to do some holding) Then put the left side of the engine case back on. Don't forget to double check the bolts.
One more thing, when you take off the left side engine cover, you'll be looking at the starter chain. Look to the right side where the chain travels and there is a black rubber chain tensioner part. You can pop that off and when you put your new chain on, slide that piece back on with it. If not, its a pain to try to slide that tensioner back on when the starter chain is already on. And by taking it off, you give yourself a little extra wiggle room to work the starter chain on. If that tensioner is worn out, it will cause some chain slop in there and you'll be able to hear it.

cool
Believe it not but we had my daughters for bout 5 years now still runninf strong and we are hard on it i personally love these lil Chinese quads
Help you help my dad fix it thank you. I’m subscribing.
I have the exact same style starter setup and engine. The bottom sprocket and lates behind the stator are all loose. What should I do to fix that?
thanks for the heads up. ill inspect it
awesome video man. my starter is doing almost the exact same thing on my daughter's quad.
Its a high possibility thats it's the same thing then.

Awesome man I heard I chain coming off when I have riding it and now it wont start
I don't mind the chinese bikes they usually go great and when something goes wrong with a part you can buy them pretty cheap plus i like working on them an learning how to fix em my kids love helping too

Hi guys my son has same bike, hit water hole an stalled the shitty wire air filter let’s water an mud in took it off cleaned it with gas changed oil , took spark plug out turned over engine blew gunk out hole new spark plug , fired right up
so would it even turn over or not?
Whats the name of the metal bracket between the starter and the flywheel, is been hold by a small bolt thanks in advance!
Have you broke the cover🥲
I cannot figure out how to take the cover off. Can you please make a video

I noticed that happens to a lot of them I have five of these right now.

mine 4 wheeler doesn't start . it just make a noise . can you help me please
A lot of problems with these Chinese brands have to do with the starter or starter chain. Good place to start.
+raptorman2666 so its something from the starter?

+Alex Mtz it is the starter
I had problems after a day😂
Okay so mine I just put a brand new starter with chain and battery I have noting at all I’m getting power because my Neutral light is green but I do not get it to turn over at all not even a sound

Cheap bike= cheap material, rusts fast!!
I can't get my starter chain on how do u get it on once you buy a new one

Did you have to remove the fly wheel? My kandi go kart has a metal guide and seems like I have to in order to get the chain beneath it.
my son bike is spinning over and not catching mabe this migh be the problem. i was thinking maybe it was the coil.
Noel Gould very good possibility.
