I got my battosai yesterday and have been playing with it and it is making an awful bearing noise and is tug responsive please tell me how i can fix it
clean the bearing then lightly lube it. If that doesn’t work change the bearing.
The get in touch with YYE and tell Andre what happened. More than likely either YYE will give you a new bearing or he will direct you to VSnewton’s Heath for a fix.
It would take effort to fill a bearing with gunk and dirt within a day of owning it. It’s completely possible but unlikely. The new bearings that I have used play nicely the first day and then make a lot of noise and are responsive a day or two later. A drop of lube and a quick break in period fixes the problem.
I had the same issue. Made the most loud and disturbing sound I have ever heard from a yo-yo before. Just give it a quick clean and a tiny tiny tiny drop of thin lube.
