Super 9 / Possible school boy error!

I replaced the stator on my 2009 Kymco AC 9. The reason I changed it as it wasn’t charging the battery and tested the battery , rectified and wires so it pointed to the stator as no voltage increases when the bike was ticking over!
When I fitted it, she fired up then started to make a clunking noise  ::) So I shut her off And took the cooling fan back off and realised I hadn’t tighten the bolt enough to hold the flywheel in place! So I retightened it properly this time and reinstall the cooling fan! I then tried to start the bike and it bogged out and now won’t start! After a few minutes of trying to start it the exhaust back fires! I checked the spark plug and it was very black so I gave it a good clean and tested for a spark which was fine! I also checked to make sure the piston was moving encase I damaged the crank shaft but I could see the piston moving up and down!  So again I tried to start it and it just kept turning over and then a back fire! I have used the kick start and the electric start! Still no joy! But after a couple of kick starts the kick start would stop half way and wouldn’t go any further unless I took my foot off and then i could do a full kick! I removed the stator again and the spindle seems solid, no play etc, so I took the crank shaft casing off and the start motor clutch is loose, is this normal? It only seems to be held in when the toothed wheel is in place!  When she try’s to start it acts like the battery is flat, but it’s not as it’s fully charged, not a healthy turn over
So question is what have I done wrong 😂😂

Super 9 / Re: Stator replacement

Thanks for your reply! It’s a 2009 AC. I ordered it off eBay! But it did say it fitted the AC ,  I found the kymco parts site last night and put in my vehicle and it shows the stator should on have 6 and not 8 parts to it! It’s about £30 more expensive but it’s obviously the right one

Super 9 / Stator replacement
« on: August 21, 2020, 12:14:40 PM »
I ordered a new stator for my Kymco Super 9, it arrived the other day so I thought I would have a crack at it today! When I took the flywheel off the current stator had 6 parts on it, but the new one had 8! Now when I ordered the new one it showed it fitted my model! So I assumed this was an after market stator and having 2 more parts on it didn’t matter! I then released that on the old wiring from the stator there was a black wire coming off before the plug to the loom and connected to another wire, the new one didn’t have this! So again I though not original! I put the stator on, but couldn’t put the fly wheel over the stator! I then took the stator off, and it appears the stator is too big for the fly wheel!
Now my question is should I of brought a new fly wheel or is it basically the wrong stator?

Problem solved! Turns out the spade connector to the starter motor needed replacing! Starts like a dream now! Thanks for all your input! Hopefully this may help someone else out! Happy times no more kick start (well for the time being 😂😂)

Super 9 / starter Motor Issues
« on: June 14, 2020, 10:31:01 AM »
I have got a 2009 super 9 AC! The electric start packed in a while ago! So I thought I would finally try and fix it! The first thing I done was charged the battery to ensure it had enough power in it! The battery currently registers 12.3 volts! After the battery was charged that didn’t seem to work! Although I did hear the electric start relay clicking! So I brought a new one, thinking it was possibly the relay! Same problem 😂😂! So I moved on to the starter motor! The motor is getting power and registers around 7.5 volts when the electric start button is pushed! So Atleast it’s getting power! I have removed the starter motor to ensure the spindle moves freely and it does! I have hooked up the starter motor to a battery and connected a negative and positive source and the starter motor spins! Any ideas??? As I can’t really understand why it won’t work! As it’s getting power from the battery, the electric switch seems to work! But it won’t turn over when it’s reconnected! Should the starter motor be getting more volts? As it was tested directly from the battery!
Please help as my head is hurting from all the scratching 😂😂

Super 9 / No rear lights/front lights or side lights!
« on: November 25, 2019, 08:30:44 PM »
Hi
Waiting for a new multimeter to come! Can anyone please suggest the best place to start? The bike was sat for a good six months! I had issues with it starting which is now sorted! But the back light, front light and side lights don’t work! The indicators work and the flash (high beam) works! But obviously there is an issue! Where is the best place to start my investigate with my multi metre?

Super 9 / No spark?? 🤔
« on: October 14, 2019, 08:05:12 PM »
Got a super 9 that turns over lovely! Fuel seems to be going through the lines! But there is no spark from the plug! A new spark plug and leads have been fitted but still no joy! Any ideas? I have googled for help and all I keep seeing is about a kill switch! Do super 9’s have them? If so where do I find it? If not any suggestions? Thanks

Super 9 / Re: Super 9 not starting after sat still for 8 months
« on: August 31, 2019, 03:18:53 PM »
Thanks for all the advice! It started after using jump
Leads! I let it run for about ten minutes and removed the jump leads! And it has started a handful of times without a battery! So think it needed some encouragement ! Thanks for all your help

You can try charging battery. Or try jumping it from another 12V battery....BUT if it's from a car , make sure car is NOT running!
Report back after trying, please.

Ok thanks I will give that a bash this after noon from a car battery!

Super 9 / Super 9 not starting after sat still for 8 months
« on: August 31, 2019, 11:15:14 AM »
Hi
Got a 2009 super 9 it was being used until feb 2019 and since then it has sat still! I have tried to start it today! And it doesn’t want to play ball! I have checked the spark plug and it seems to be given I string spark! The battery is completely dead so the electric start won’t work! And I have plenty of fuel!
Any ideas? Is it worth charging the battery and try the electric start or can I put jump leads on the battery to give it some life?

Super 9 / Re: Super 9 Mot Failed! Need Advise. Head Bearings
« on: May 05, 2018, 11:19:03 AM »
Sometimes it's amazing what a proper adjustment and re-grease can do to bearings. See how it feels. You might be able to get away with not changing them.
Thanks for all the above viper! It did need tightening as it was loose, but as I had already brought the new bearing kit, I thought I might as well change them! Lucky I did as there was no bearings at the bottom! I can only assume when the little w*****s who tried to steal it last year forced the steering so hard it de lodged the bottom bearings! All good now ! From start to finish took around 3 hours!
Thanks again

Thanks for the advice, I’m going to have a crack at it at the weekend. I have been reading that it could be something loose? Is that possible? It does it sound like a complete replace of the head bearings?

Hi,

Sorry to hear about your son's bike. To be honest, it's a bit of a sod of a job; not because it's difficult, but because of the disassembly it requires.

You'll need to take off the front forks, the handlebars again and remove the yoke from the bike. From there, you'll need to use some sort of punch to remove the old bearing races (have to be chiselled until they slide up the yoke) and then use a bit of PVC pipe or something to push new ones on with a mallet and a piece of work.

It's a really expensive garage job because it requires so much disassembly, expecially with removing fairings, but the parts aren't expensive; it's just tedious.

There's loads of helpful tutorials on Youtube. If you've got the bearings, I'd put aside a day to  get it done if you haven't done it before.
