Hey guys, i had my boy post in YFZ Central about his issue but only 2 responses. Maybe you guys can help us.
hey guys, had a problem today while trail riding.
so all day my bike was running perfect, about half way through the day i came to a complete stop to take a break with the guys, turned off the bike, and about 5 minutes later i went to turn the bike back on and NOTHING,when i press the power button, i get a loud click by the battery and the power to the lights would go off, so i figured the battery just died, simple fix just pull start me, so we did that it worked...
now this is where the problem began, about 1hr later after some hard riding, i noticed the bike wasn't running so smooth, at top speed it would bog out, so i slowed down and as i got in 2nd gear, i herd some clonking noise and the bike just came to a stop by itself. i tried starting it and again the starter did not work so just thought it was the battery, the guys tried to pull start me and the same things would happen as above where the battery would make a loud noise, you couldn't even hear the starter trying to kick over ,I charged the battery last night and still getting the same thing.
only thing i could think of it the spark plug went bad. but im not to sure...
OK That was his story, the guys over at YFZCentral suggested rod bearing failure. What are your thoughts?
Thanks in advanced
