Having touble getting my bike to move forwards

[jdnva]

Ola,

I suspect there may be some problem with my bike that I haven't found yet.

Bit of background first, this is a Zongshen 200 gy-2, about 8 or 9 months old +- 30 000 km's on it and has never been crashed, services regularly etc etc.

The bike starts "fine" tough does sound a bit off, slightly rough earthy sound if that makes any sense. now the real problems starts when I try to disengage the clutch and move forwards... I get a horrid grinding sound and the bike just shudders without moving at all.

I recently had the bike services due to some electrical problems and just cant figure out what the problem might be.

Have attached some photos in the hope that one of you might be able to stop a problem



































lol what happened is that the bike was having various electrics and stuff fixed as well as having the head gasket replaced due to an oil leak, in order to replace the gasket they had to take the engine out of the frame. As soon as they unbolted the engine form the frame it fell apart.

Looking at the rust on the break itself I am guessing it happened months back and the engine basically held the bike together.

moral of the story, Chinese bike are most likely worthless :o

Just glad I wasn't riding the thing when it fell apart, or even worse my girlfriend.

Tis still under warranty, for like 2 weeks!!! rofl so I get a new frame D
