Tax on trials bike sales sounds like a good way to make hundreds and hundreds of dollars lol
-
Apparently China doesn't have the engineering or they would not be buying it.
-
They should start building electric motorcycles in some economically depressed first world country where the domestic currency is only worth 69 cents on the US$

Correct answer is Papa if you can possibly swing it buy a 4RT, it's a current production model bike and infinitely superior bike to own, ride and maintain.
-
TL lol you should have made it a poll

Looks like a lighter duty bearing compared to what my trials bikes use. In my experience if bearings fly to pieces on removal that is usually because they were left too long before being replaced.

Just a guess that MOT inspection guy will not be able to check the chain guard is secure if it does not have a chain guard.

It's called homologation and if it hasn't come to your country yet it surely will. Third world countries might never adopt it, by our laws you bought a pit bike, perfect for use on private property use or closed course competition where it exists.

Guessing you don't have access to electrical test equipment. If testing involves shipping in both directions or they just say it is faulty on receipt, it is generally best to just buy a new part. If your bike has no black box to control the ignition that means the coil and associated electrics will be even easier to meter test. Best luck with your repair 👍

And you would be correct, you are looking at the coil pickup or signal generator to control spark, that pickup generates a small charge of electricity when the magnets pass by it, that electric charge goes to your ignition control module where it will be used to send a whole bunch more electricity towards the ignition coil and spark plug. Coils have measurable resistance unless they are burned or shorted, then they will show the wrong resistance or no resistance at all aka no continuity. You can meter test the coils, meter test the connections and wires, you can meter test the power outputs once you have it somewhat running, but that part #4 the ignition control module is going to be by far you biggest problem to test or replace.

Lots of rectifiers or regulators would work, those are about the least 'special' parts in the whole electric system, everything else is more difficult to substitute and unique to fit the model.
-
Do you have a VOM (volt ohm meter) if you do then test for resistance (ohms) between the yellow wire coming out of the alternator and ground. Have you removed the flywheel yet? ... a photo of what is inside there would be helpful, we are looking for breaker points or a magnetic pickup to control when the spark happens.

This part does not comply with the wiring diagram, could be we are looking at a combined regulator rectifier part.
