Hi well im new and i somehow installed a 66 raw engine on my beach cruiser (i want it on my stingray but i couldnt fit it.)

However the sprocket in the wheel wont move cuz the one inside the motor wont turn

so there's no way of running my bike if i cant get the wheel to turn at all

Can anyone help me been working on this thing for 2 days well todays the third and i really want to drive it

also how do you drive it ? lol might sound silly but the only controls i see are the handle thing the looks like a brake and the red button (is that a do not press red button?)

Please help

is your clutch hooked up?

First off do you have the clutch cable installed? That must be in place and adjusted correctly before you can engage the clutch and roll the bike. The button is a kill switch so you can turn off the engine once it is started. Wire it between the two wires that run to the CDI (black box with spark plug wire). The handle thing is the clutch lever. That should be at the handlebar end of the clutch cable. There should also be a throttle grip with a cable that runs to the carb. Good luck!

Second this is the wrong page of the forum for this type of question. Don't be surprised if the moderator moves it.

Is your clutch working?

So with no compression (plug) out - you roll the bike and piston moves? Normal.

Put plug back in (now have compression) you can't turn the engine over?

What happens when you pull the clutch hand lever in?

the cable brings the metal thing toward the bike's seat tube

Try using a pair of pliers for leverage and moving the clutch lever towards the engine. Does it roll then? If so you need to adjust the cable some more with the brass stop that slides over the cable and allows you to adjust the length. If it doesn't make a difference then your clutch isn't disengaging and there is something wrong inside the engine.

If it's brand new, you might need to take the right side cover off and adjust the clutch. It could be that the clutch is adjusted too tight from the factory.

Take the cover off. Inside, there's a little silver screw that's off center. Remove it; it's the stopper for the thumbscrew in the middle. Pull the clutch lever, and you should be able to turn the thumbwheel counterclockwise to loosen it. You'll have to play back and forth a little bit until you get it set where the clutch is disengaged when you pull the clutch lever, and engaged when you don't. Make sure to put the silver stopper screw back in before you put the cover back on, and a little blue loctite on it will keep it from falling out inside the clutch cover.

I also have a "raw" brand engine, 48cc, and I had to take the clutch entirely off in order to free the countershaft, because it was stuck from sitting on a shelf somewhere. It's really simple.
