Hey guys, I recently bought a 1990 blaster that was in rough shape. I replaced the top end and a lot of bearings that were bad and also bought a kickstart rebuild kit because it was rattling somewhat and would sometimes swing out and hit my leg when riding. I've been able to find a ton of helpful information on this forum but unfortunately there is very little info on the kickstart save for a few threads that don't go into any detail. I knew that you're supposed to replace the ball, spring, and o ring. Well, on my kickstart the ball won't come out. It's either stuck or it's peened in there or something from the factory. The kickstart had 0 grease and was missing the o ring entirely so it's a bit better now but still rattles.
Does anyone know about this issue? Most of the information I found was on Banshees and although similar the kickstart mechanism doesn't appear to be the same. I can't find a single thread or video that shows a Blaster kickstart rebuild. The Banshee videos always show the ball just falling out. Thanks.
