Starting problem

[mudlver_250EX]

I just changed battery in my 250ex, and its not starting. The starter turns over but the engine does not. Any idea of what may be my problem???

is your coil alright? how about the plug? if not those, it is something internal w/ your starter.

It was running b4 battery died. All the starter does is turn nd the motor does not. The starter sounds like a blender when i press the start button

it's not a a solenoid clicking, is it? did you charge the battery after the acid was put in? charge it right away if you didn't. if it is the solenoid clicking, the battery is dead.

Someone told me the 1way bearing(sprag) is gone bad....any thoughts on that???

that sounds logical to me.
