thepersonalme Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowroll Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I vote for just tearing it down. Something has gone wrong. Too hard to take guesses at problems like this Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepersonalme Posted February 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Yea, I have a buddy that knows his way around quads pretty well so hopefully I'll have him help me tear the thing down tomorrow or this weekend. Hopefully it's nothing too crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
registered user Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 surely nobody would drive with no oil in the gearbox then dare ask why it barely shifts now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepersonalme Posted February 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 When I bought it (a few days before that) there was oil in the lower end.. I asked the guy if there were any leaks, he said no.. I noticed no oil spots under where the bike is parked. Assuming you guys don't check your gear oil everyday, now do ya?

trickedcarbine Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Check all fluids before every ride. Also grip every suspension component and try to rattle it to make sure everything is nice and tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
