yesterday i was riding my 250x and was sliding around a corner and the fcker rolled. i rolled it back over, waited, when i fired it up, it started knocking. it sounds like a loose bolt, but its internal motor sounds. my guess was either a circlip popped out and it rattlin around or the wristpin. any idears, i am going to tear it down sunday of this coming week. any idears for the time being?:confused:

man the best advice till u tear it apart is dont drive it!!!, it sounds like the rod :( , how long did it run for when it rolled over , because its quite possible the bearings for the rod where it connects to the crank can be scored or burnt out, good luck tho,

Np, its really hard to give out guesses when u cant hear the noise for yourself, if i think of anything ill be sure to post it.
