I swapped my modded Baja to a guy today and he seems to be having issues with it. When he drives it, the pin is coming out the back of the driven pulley. He said its sliding out. Is there a fix to this or something he needs to do to secure it? I appreciate the help. Would really like to see him enjoy the bike as i did not have the time to.
I think you mean that shaft part number 22 is loose because way at the end part number 27 a clip has fallen off.
It would make life a lot simpler if you found the pictures, you posted them and you asked clear questions.
We're just guess in the dark with names like " pin "
If it is that 69 cent clip....
Tell you chum he's a moron for not being able to figure it out for himself.
You can;t be held accountable for things that brake on a used minibike

Do you see anything missing or out of the ordinary?
Refer back to the picture I posted and tell me what is missing.
I AM NOT going to make this easy for you.
you need to examine and understand what has failed and what is missing for yourself.
This is a life lesson now about how to solve your own problem.
And your chum is an idiot.
Clue, there has been a part failure.
This part made noises and did nasty stuff before it failed.
I gave clear warning to stop and fix and he ignored it...
Since it failed so soon after sale YOU had clear warning as well something was going wrong.
You also were not paying attention.
The rear outboard jack shaft bearing has completely failed and separated.
It must have made an AWFUL racket.
Did you really need me or anyone else to help you with this?
Honestly now was it not obvious the moment you saw the picture?
And as I said you chum is an absolute idiot for trying to drive around with with kind of failure happening

Upon looking back at the pics, i figured it was the bearing. I asked him to make sure and he said it looks like it had seperated. Nice of you to be so content on this board. Thanks for the response though. Sorry some of us are not up to your standards on mini bike knowledge. What is this tension all aboot?
Looks Chinese:
Bearing failure is not a major surprise.

I am left with the impression you didn't put much effort into solving this for yourself.
I fix scooters and bikes around here for the kids.
I get Its Broke Mr NOS can you fix it.
Little thought or trouble shooting went into it for them.
They just assume to dump the problem.
Well I donèt fix it for them much these days.
I help them, I open my workshop door and we bring it in and out comes the tools.
But I make them work for it.
I tried to make you work for it too.
So what if the OldMiniBikes was not here
What would you have done
We live in an age where most of the answers are easy enough to find with a search engine and research.
But you hit the easy button and asked us to solve a simple mechanical problem.
Do you think I am being difficult and harsh.
Because I wanted to push you to say I think I see the trouble rather than ask someone to make a decision or plan for you.
The world is plenty full allready of people that can't make a decision or trust their own ability.

Nos. I answer the same questions from people on buggymasters and sometimes buggynews that i see over and over. I just wasnt sure he had alll the pieces compared to what he was showing me. Its a whole lot easier if it were sitting infront of me. I have no problem looking for it. Once i had all the info from him i was pretty well aware of the fix.
