Hello, I have had the bike for about 2 months and at take off it shudders alot and during the riding it makes a gear noise that does let up a little at higher speeds. But really makes noise at take off . Any ideas Thanks

Hi, And yes it is a 2 stroke 80cc I do peddle to star off. But mostly concerned with the gear noise and if it's good for the engine, Thanks
it sounds like it needs grease a little in between the gears on the clutch side and some in the bearings take the clutch perch out where the clutch cable goes through and shoot grease down in there and some in behind the bucking bar the bar in the middle of the drive sprocket
OK, I will try that and let you know how that works out , I like the bike it's a schwinn cruiser "new" and really want it to be a good ride thanks jaguar .
Keep the grease off the clutch pads- its most effective right on the gear teeth and behind the bucking bar in the middle of the shaft also may want to consider sound dampeners- home made ones are good- use thin hard syrofoam or cardboard or rubber and maybe cover with thin pie plate aluminum- press the covers into the material to make cookie cutters and then cut out.

Hello Nashville Kat, I did try that but not the bucking bar, is that right side, take off the nut and lube behind it but stay off the pads? I lubed everything I could on the left side It did help alittle. also I'm thinking that maybe it needs to be broke in more?
the bucking bar is on the left if you are siting on the bike its in the middle of the drive chain sprocket its the thing the clutch lever pushes on and taking off the clutch perch the thing that holds the clutch cable and shooting grease in there will help a lot thats going to actually lube the bearings
