August 30, 20232 yr Just recently bought a 2008 beta rev 250, the kickstart jammed, seemed to have fixed that issue now a whirring noise coming from flywheel magneto? And suggestions what this could be? Are there bearings in the magneto?
August 30, 20232 yr Make sure that noise is not just your fan. The bearings behind the magneto are your crankshaft bearings, it won't be that or she wouldn't run. If it runs good, keep searching for something simple.
August 30, 20232 yr The fan speeds up when the engine does, just give the fan blades a spin with your finger and if it doesn't make the noise that's not it.
August 30, 20232 yr Its just the plastic cover rubbing on the flywheel. Take it off and re-center. Nothing is really wrong.
August 31, 20232 yr Author Noise is still there with the plastic cover off. Ill check the fan tomorrow
