What do I look for when finding a "belt"?

Sometimes what I fail in when searching for things is the right terminology. Basically, I need to buy a new belt. The belt that drives the centrifugal clutch. I have had some success in searching BUT I have some specific needs.

First of all, I do not drive a Honda Spree or Elite... it's a Sky. This ...

That's what I'm talking about

So thus in the same way I jump a car, I can jump start my scooter. It seems so intense. Has anyone done this? Did it work?

Sounds like a good idea

I know it definitely might come to this. However, can I get some ideas about an electric start.

Either my battery does not hold a charge or the alternator does not charge it up when I was able to run my scooter because everything electric on my Sky/Spree/Eve is dead.

How do you jump start a Spree?

Kick Start

I decided to start a new topic because my problem has changed from the centrifugal clutch to the kick start. I actually have two questions:

1) Can you jump start a Honda Sky/Spree/Eve? How do you do that?

2) What gears should the kick start move? Because right now the kick start is jammed and does ...

Kick Start

Yes it has a battery.

So not being able to physically kick through is called a "load problem". Because before I changed the centrifugal clutch I was able to kick through fine. I do not believe I even touched the reed. However, if the reed being broken even stops me from kicking through then I have ...

I'm learning a lot about my scooter, but it still won't work

I need some help diagnosing this problem.

My new problem that I need help diagnosing is not being able to start it. Okay first ...

The Driven Face is TOAST!

I just ordered a new clutch for my Honda Sky/Spree. The clutch was BARE BONE! I'll post some pictures later and describe what I'm doing so other people who have this problem can have a guide.

Day One Results

Cleaned the carb and unfortunately no change. Here's another symptom of my unknown problem though. I'm leaning towards the centrifugal clutch.

It starts beautifully. When I just have it on the stand it looks like the clutch is in because the back tire is spinning even when I haven't applied the gas ...

Nice

I think you guys are right on the money so far. I was really afraid it was something wrong with the clutch. I'll work on the carb later today and report how it went.

Thanks

Seriously! Thank you so much. Just knowing that someone looked at my post makes me feel so good. I'm scouring the boards right now to see if I can find something similar. I saw that someone else recently had problems with their scooter not idling, which mine doesn't right now. Maybe my problem is ...

Centrifugal Clutch

If I could get some help with this, I would be incredibly grateful. This is my scooter:
