Weard noise at 22 mph or faster...

Yup, that little 'navy bean' dab is just about right. I made the mistake on my first engine of dabbing too much grease in there. What a mess!!!
It doesn't take much, but if it's dry it'll make a heck of a racket, and wear away the teeth in a new york minute!

If you do this carefully enough, you can re-use the gasket, but if it tears at all you'll have to replace the gasket.

About that, you can make a gasket really easily if you use some RTV blue/black/copper, or use "form a gasket". It's cheap, easy and you don't have to wait for the parts to show up.

yeah i just had to make my own gasket, go to your auto parts store and ask for gasket material to make a gasket. The one i got was from o rileys(also pick up a hobby knife to cut it out), it was 7$ and you get a packet of 4 different thickness gasket material about 8inch by 8 inch quite a lot. I only needed a piece for my pipe, Solved my oil leak problem so far as i found out the cheap o it came with burnt the bottom off -_- so its working great now!. Now I just need to solve the high rev and vibration i get sometimes it does not catch

Check your clutch plate for left over oil residue.

Still making noise.

I just greases, didn't over grease , the gears on the one side of the engine. It seemed to really need it. Then I rode it but it still made the same noise. I'm now thinking the pistion or something in the engine might be creating the noise. I still cheking all of your sugestions too. Still throw them at me.

I think I got ride of it!!!

Well ok. I tightened the tank, carberator, clutch cord, mufler, and some other bolts ans with all of that i've got ridden of the vibrating noise. I so excited that now I think it's gone for good. Thanks to you guys. Thanks.

I might be picky now but now I hear this noise of my engine going ring ring... ring ring... ring... ... ring... Which only happens after I go a fast speed of 20 mph or faster making the bike go slower (by 3 mph or more). I only can avoid this sound if I slow down very slowly by 1 mph at a time. Which I can see on my bike Bell Spin Dometer. When I increase in speed or stat constant it doesn't make this noise. (I definatly don't take this sound as seriously as the other one though.)
