Hi

I am bored with my lx 125 bought recently, my rear wheel unscrews ceaselessly. I saw on a picture of another topic, what looks like a washer between the rear wheel and the ball bearing?

It a washer or not ? I have no it on mine !

Your answer will be welcome !!!! Thanks

lack of a spacer would make the nut not be able to tighten to spec. check the parts diagrams to be sure.

That is a bushing that rides inside the seal. Look at the thread farther down titled "I think I am a bad scooter owner". Lot of pictures there to help out.

If you are assembling it in the order shown and it is locking up the wheel, then you probably need to take the bushing out to check it for length.

Yes all is assembled in order and it's locking up the wheel.

But I don't have any bushing beetween wheel and ball bearing, I think the wheel is blocked against the crankcase of the back axle
