Engine Noise

These Chinese 2 strokes make so many wierd noises I quit worrying about it. Some of them make a whining noise, some a knocking noise. Just ride it, if it blows up buy another one. At this price they are almost disposible.

My newest one rattles something fierce. When I put my hands on the cooling fins it's much quieter. I knew the fins could make noise, but had no idea they could be that loud. In the process of finding an old fan belt to cut up, to wedge small pieces in between the fins and see if that helps.

Sometimes that "pinging noise" can be attributed to the mounts being loose, believe it or not. In most cases it sounds like detonation, something these 6.5:1 compression ratio engines are not really capable of. Also, the bushed engines have a lot of top end noise (99.6% harmless)
