maskmanLS6 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Posted May 17, 2012 I had a fly wheel problem recently and it worked me bad. My foot was sore for days, I tried everything else first and almost drove myself crazy because i couldnt believe it was the problem because i had spark the whole time. Quote
bansheealec Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Posted May 17, 2012 If i pull the cover off today what am I looking for will it be obvious if I have a loose flywheel and is there anything else i should check Quote
Jereme6655 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Posted May 17, 2012 Yes.....check that the flywheel has not sheared the woodruff key and then also pull the flywheel and shake it.....if it rattles then your magnets in the flywheel have broken loose and the flywheel needs replacement. ALSO when you pull the flywheel you need to use a specific puller...not a jaw type puller as it will bend your flywheel. You can get the tool at atv shops or our site sponsors.....the tool is around $13 Quote

It ran good before it broke. Quote
bansheealec Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Posted May 17, 2012 I hear that all the time. It ran good before it broke. haha yes that usually is the way it goes, im not a person that will just hope a problem goes away though i will investigate , anyway i pulled the flywheel cover off had a look and all looked good so i thought right what havnt i tried. i sprayed some gas into the back of the carbs and the bike went 2nd kick and idle was good, the left exhaust smokes same as right now so the left carb must of had a blockage somewhere. so the problem is now why the bike will not start cold unless you spray some gas in the carbs, im thinking maybe the idle jet is too small ????? running a stock 25, would say a 27.5 or a 30 solve my problem ????? cant think of what else it could be now. thanks again for the help Quote
Jereme6655 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Posted May 18, 2012 Aftermarket pipes.....usually want 27.5's. Quote
