wadlesw96 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Ok back again with my next shee issue. ive only had it a for about a month but hopefully as i learn and work the bugs about it will become a little more reliable. Anyway what happened was this. I was riding and when i would slow down pull in clutch and roll towards a stop right before it came to a idle. I would hear a very slight grinding but more of a whirring sound. When i leaned down next to the motor i could tell it was something close to the outside (didnt sound internal). I think its either in the clutch or kickstarter assembly but its hard to tell for sure. So the sound continued and seemed to get a little lounder. Then i pulled in the clutch came to a stop and shifted into nuetral and it idled for about 10 seconds and thats when i heard kind of a pop/ clunk (from that area i described earlier) and it died. Now the kickstarter lever will only go down about 2 inches and then you cant push it at all anymore. When i tried to see if the clutch would pull in i found that you cant pull the lever at all. I havnt even started tearing into it i just wanted to get some tips and advice of where and what to really look for inside before i start. All help appriciated thanks. Also during all this i never had any shifting or clutch issues everything was normal except that sound. I believe the previous owner said there was a new clutch basket and stiff springs just to give all the info i can. Quote
