hi all

this may be a stuid question but when i am riding the kick start keeps opening up to the starting position. i chequed all the screws and all is tight.

has any one else had this problem?

max

the kick start is in two parts the lower part contains a small bearing that acts as a locater to keep it closed when not in use this bearing has a spring that tensions it what you need to do is remove the srew that holds the top part to the lower part then very slowly remove the top part the bearing should fallout if it dont then the springs more than likely gone please refer to attached picture

Apologies for me going off the topic here, but what does 315 mean with regards to the Monesa. Does it mean 315cc?

315 is reference to the model not cc

hello mate, i had mine off last weekend, its sounds like the spring/ ball bearing has gone, but what i will say is if you need to take the crank case cover off ensure the nylon bush for the spring is housed correctly, if not it jumps out when back together
