Hello eerbody,
So I took apart the top end of my engine so I could clean it and the piston and once I put it back on I was able to get it running for a few yards until it came to a halting screeching stop.
I realized that the bike would ride when I had the clutch pressed but as soon as I let go it would stop and the engine would be stuck.
I took it apart again and realized that the arm that connects to the piston which makes it go up and down is stuck and the rotating parts of the engine will not rotate.
Something may have fallen in there while I was monkeying with the piston and I didn't see.
My question is, how can I troubleshoot this to see where the issue may be coming from? is there a video anyone can point me to on taking apart the bottom end of the engine and troubleshooting for engine rotation issues?
Thanks for your help in advance.
