Geez!... that didn't last long!...

Did he ride the snot out of it?... Huh...


Probably dealer only for a new one... and they'll probably recommend either a rebuild or buying a whole new bike...

I would keep checkin craig's list or classifieds.
You might even be able to pick up a parts bike.
I had one of those scooters. I loved it.
Did he forget to check the oil? I carried a
quart with me as seemed I had to add it pretty
often. Hope you find a replacement soon. Hugs..Smiley kim

I'd say that there is a Chinese-built scooter motor that'd be a direct swap ... most units built in the PRC are direct knock-offs of many common Japanese-built motors. Lifan for instance are mostly reverse-engineered from Honda ... maybe they've copied some Yami's too?

partsforscooters.com sold him the wrong engine and have a no return policy......still trying to negotiate something other than keeping the $425 boat anchor he bought from them......yes the local yami dealer wants to rebuild.......I will keep looking though thanks for the input.

he is at least 2nd owner - 13K miles on a 50cc - it is his only transportation for many years to come.

brand new 2012 on ebay $2490...he does not have that kind of money right now.
