Hello! Newbie here. Aerox R 2013

Hi there, As you know with the lockdown ect majority of people in self iso scratching there heads at finding new things to do.
So i've decided to break out my old moped, yamaha aerox r 2013.
Had the scooter since I left school for around 3 years but ran into some problems as it got boggy then engine decided to go.
I'm looking to rebuild this and making it a little project for something to do and get into scooter builds.

I took the scooter to local place padgetts where I got it from brand new, then they quoted me £1500 to fix it and said it blew because i took the washer out to derestrict it. LOL. Been sat in my garage ever since as i was busy with college at the time.
The scooter is bog standard nothing ever touched on it
So here is some photos and i'll be uploading regularly to show you progress of what's been done.

 

Blew it because the washer was took out, how laughable.
Just goes to show that some places are just there to rip people off and feed them bullshit.
And £1500? Thieves plain as.....

And welcome by the way

 

What actually happened? Did it run without oil maybe?

 

I know mate literally tried having my pants down with that

 

Just took the side casing on off, belts non existent and the variator fan pulley is literally blown

 

Ok... That could be from you messing up putting it together again somehow...

 

I just put it back how it came without the washer in

 

Did you torque it up correctly?
Also did you ride it fine for 3 years then it suddenly shat it's transmission? Or did the trans die after the first ride?

 

I was riding a good year or two just decided to go one morning

 

Ahhh ok... Yeah... Hmmm my runner did that. A roller fell apart. Took the crank, belt, oil pump cover, clutch etc etc

 

Found one of the problems

 

I see that a lot when it's been over tightened

 

And under tightened.......
