I think i got water and dirt in my engine and now it won't start.

also the back wheel wont move even if its in neutral.

has the bike been killed if not what should i do?

Cheers looey
 
haha.. sounds like uve seized ur wheel barings and how did u get that shit in there anyway?

more like seized your engine.

mate did the carby get a LOT of shit in it? if it did. well.... It's pretty much gonna mean you need atleast a new top end. it could have wrecked the bottom end too.

I'd say new motor though.
 
when i kick it it tries to start but doesn't does that make any sense or diffrence??
 
stacked in a big puddle.

how would fix it??

If your motor was running and took in a big gulp of water then you'll need to tear it down , clean and check everything , then put it back together making sure everything is right .... pit bikes and water don't mix ..... :p

Drain your carby float bowl and clean your air filter ... it's probably got water in it which will cause it to be hard to start .... also check your valve clearances ....

Maybe your rear brake caliper has locked on ? Take the chain off and see if you can turn the rear wheel ..... if you can turn it and the motor turns over ..... you've got a jammed up gearbox .... My brother was doing donuts on a DHZ 110 when the chain jumped off from being too loose . It bunched up and jammed causing some gear teeth to bust off (Loncin 110) .......

check ur spark plug maybe thats nackered if it doesnt start if it does fire its gota be ur carby etc...
 
Just buy a new motor off ebay for like 250 bucks... and update.
or you could spent ALOT of time cleaning all that jazz.
or spend money on new things like bearings gaskets piston etc etc etc etc etc.
