    blaster needs help

    I am not sure what is wrong with my blaster 2004 I just died yesterday when I was riding. The engine was really hot but I had only been riding for like 20 minutes. The exhaust got a bit louder and then it quit running. It didn't sease up becasue it still kicks over I checked the plug and it lost some compression.

    Any help would be nice.

    yeah, cheeck the reed valves and make sure they are still layin down flat, if they arent you need to replace, i had a RM250 that was constantly goin through reed valves, had to replace about every 3 rides, when the reeds go you lose a lot of power and if they arent seated right they can make you lose compression too.
