Yamaha Vino Variator Grinding Noise

Post by HarrisonFallow »

Hi there everybody, sorry I know this isn't Honda related but I posted in the non-Honda related topic but the last time anyone was there looked to be a while ago, I also posted this same thread there. At any rate; I got myself a 2005 Yamaha Vino 125 from a kid who said it didn't run after installing a new V-belt on it. After tinkering with it for less than an hour, I got it started. It runs beautifully other than this gross grinding noise coming off the variator side. Now I can't tell if its an improper kickstart gear install, or if he put the variator on wrong when he put it back together, but I took a video of it momentarily just to show what I'm hearing. If anybody has any thoughts on it please feel free to throw some advice my direction. Thanks a bunch! Here's the link to said video:
