We had an issue like this and it turned to be the fly wheel... my buddy was stumped changeing things left and right and it turned to be the fly wheel... Quote

chadj1980 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 swap plug wires and see if the other side fires.. If it doesnt I would check plug for gas...might have bad reeds in one cyl. Quote
88BANSHEERIDER Posted January 29, 2009 Author Report Posted January 29, 2009 so i think i narrowed it down to the flywheel but i cant tell if it has a break in it somewhere i put a screwdriver in it and it seems to have the same amount of spacing all the way around and doesnt break in the middle of any magnetic pads that are in there i dont know im lost im so close but so far i just want to ride this thing matt Quote

88BANSHEERIDER Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Posted January 30, 2009 (edited) doesnt rattle im kinda thinking its the reeds but what if they dont have a crack in them anything else to look at oh yea forgot to add plug is getting wet Edited January 30, 2009 by 88BANSHEERIDER Quote
killshee Posted January 30, 2009 Report Posted January 30, 2009 did u switch the plug wires ... what was the outcome also look for gaps burn and cracks in your reeds Quote
88BANSHEERIDER Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Posted January 30, 2009 well the reeds are ok i cant figure this damn thing out help Quote
88BANSHEERIDER Posted January 30, 2009 Author Report Posted January 30, 2009 i put a timing light up to it i put an x on one side and a o on the other side it does fine at idle and when i rev it up the o goes away and the x comes there and stays there has anyone ever had a problem with the pickup on the flywheel side or what i want to ride this fucking thing so bad matt Quote
