My buddy has a 2004 YFZ450 that will not turn over fully. By this I mean it turns over until it hits the compression stroke, then stalls, and then turns over a little more, stalls and so on.
- It pop starts fine.
- We just replaced the starter.
- Battery is fine.
- Applied 12 volts to the starter directly - same result.
- Motor was rebuild and runs fine (if pop started)
- Compression was raised 12:5.
- New top end (valves, springs, clearences all done professionally)
- Has a kick starter, but is very hard almost near impossible to kick start. (Only when its warm)
- Timing is spot on.
- Turns over fine without spark plug in (no stalling)
Any ideas? We are totally stumped!
