hi - first post here
ok heres the deal. i bought a '97 300ex about 6 months ago and never had any problems except recently i've had some slippage in 5th gear.
anyway Im riding 2 days ago for like 2 hours, on beach, in dunes, on trails, and she overheated on the beach twice, so i let it cool and ride on. im on my way home in 5th gear almost at WOT when all of a sudden it just kils out on me and the back wheels locked up. go to start and all that happens is white smoke pumps out of exhaust. i pushed it home let it cool and still wont start.
yesterday went out changed spark plug, oil, gas, air filter, and cleaned carb. Still wont start, engine just cranks and cranks forever. sprayed started fluid in and it just pops but wont start. my friend thinks its i blew a ring but its got compression. any advise????????????????????
sorry for the long post.............. please help
