I will check the resistence. I just threw the picture up for reference.  Thank you!

My wires colors do not match the diagram.  I have red, yellow, blue, and white.  Does anyone know what I need to do or have another diagram?  Here is what comes with the kit.

I am gald to have spent time in person and email with him. He touched the lives of people here in the USA too. God bless him and his family.

Danke Matthias!

For the past 5 years I have been coming to your rallies, now it is time for you to come to ours! This will be a blow out and the biggest yet. Honestly there may never be a bigger rally in the USA since the British will never come again in such large numbers. We will never be at as good of a hotel (Tropicana) or have such a large band play (Dave Wakeling/English beat). Plus it is Vegas, an amazing place for a scooter rally!!!!!! As I said, this is the year to break the bank and show up! Air fares are coming down and you Germans/Europeans get like twice as much vacation time as us. So do whatever it takes and you will thank me at the end.

Hope to see you there,

Eric

here are some more photos, feel free to post yours here too

Maybe you have the wrong "cruciform", there are different types available for the different types of smallframe engines (older and newer).

I don´t know how good you are at understanding German, but have a look at this topic, Polinizei invented a solution to prevent the engine from jumping out of gear using a solid piece of PU instead of the small spring that pushes the two small balls ( ) against the "cruciform". Seems to work well so far.

My German sucks. I will try to figure it out. I do have the right cruciform, I figured that out with the first cruciform that I replaced - hahaha. Hey, thanks again for letting me ride your red PK when I was in Koln.

Hey, I need some help with my PK XL2. I have changed the cruciform and checked the spacing gap of the cruciform at the end of the shift rod (,3mm gap). I have changed the cruciform twice and checked it pretty damn well, but it is still falling out of 4th, 3rd, and probably the other 2 if i rev-ed it up a lot. It falls out randomly too, not at high RPMs or at a certain RPM point.

So what other things can I look at to figure out why it is falling out of gear? The solid rod cable is new and unbent. The engine was rebuilt, the primary gear was changed. One thing could be that the shifter/shift arm under the engine could be old and wobbly. What else??? When it does fall out of gear it falls towards the lower gear. So I am in 4th, it woudl fall in between 3rd and 4th.

There are almost no PK XL2 here in the USA, so know one really has much experience with them. Robert from Scooter Center has been a huge help, but I am still struggling to figure it out. I know one of you guys have pounded on these XL2 a great deal.

Thanks

They will probably head over to 20 Flight Rock after the Hamburg show. Olaf, one of the owners, is friendly with them; though I did have to take him some repayment gifts from the last time they cause trouble there. All in good fun. EP

A "High Roller" is not a stoned german scooterist! My german friend asked me what that was.

The Kings of Nuthin are a fucking kickass band and good friends of mine. When I was at the Marl races, some people from Koln were playing them, so I know at least a handful of the scooterist like them. They are incredibly crazy, set things on fire, drink too much, break shit, steal crap, and often get arrested by the police (they play good music too). Here are their tour dates, you wont be dissappointed!

If you go, tell them the EP told you about them and that you are a scooterist.

I also hope to see some of you in Vegas too.
