kick starter

Post by Da56panman » Tue Sep 09, 2014 7:38 am

went to start this morning and upon the first kick, i experienced a grinding, then the kick arm locked in the downward position.

any thoughts before i start to dis-assemble?

thanks in advance

Pull the right side cover off and check the kick starter knuckle for cracks/ damaged splines.
