BANSHEE ISSUE!


Recommended Posts

Hopefully this is the right discussion page for this stuff, if not please move it if need be.

 

With that being said, I encountered a very odd problem with my shee. I was riding it last week and it was perfectly fine, ripping hard, smooth, yada yada. The next day I went to ride it a bit again and forgot to check the gas, and stalled out down the road. While pushing it back I noticed that there was some resistance from what seemed to sound like the engine trying to work while pushing in neutral.. I thought nothing of it.

 

The other day I put gas in it and went to start it to go road riding in the snow and I noticed a loud whining coming but also noticed an exhaust leak from between header and silencer so I thought that's where it was coming from. Road it for a minute or two to see if the sound would go away and the bike died. It would no longer drive in first, instead it was able to actually move in neutral when the clutch was released. When shifted into first and I would try to drive it, it died. I got it home and let it sit for the night, the next day I went over the bike a bit and noticed there was no bottom end/gear oil and thought it might have been the problem but after putting new gear oil in it and I try to kick it in neutral it still tries to move.

 

Any possible ideas?

I don't wanna scare you, but running a 2stroke out of gas can be the same as leaning one out. So throw a compression gauge on it to make sure that is ok. As far as the lower end, that's a catastrophe! With what you said it's doing, just split the bottom end. Check the top end first to see if components are salvageable, then tear it down.
