last time I was riding I was tacked in 6th and it died on me. I thought I blew the rings untill I saw I broke a reed (stock) so I got vforce3's installed them but still wont kick start? Now I've got some spark but it wasent real bright, like it may be weak. also I can now push the kick starter easily with my hand and feels like no compression but the day it sh*t out it had good hard kick to it and was running fine all day until this? tonight I will get a comp tester and see but could my stator have gone too? :-/ Will an auto zone flywheel puller work? tors is removed
 
have you installed the reeds correctly? the reeds also contribute to the pressure in the cylinder, also, i wouldn't worry about the spark concentrate on getting compression.
 
wow i hope i dont have this problem when i install my new reeds.how did this happen to both of us on the same day, at the same riding spot???
 
yay tested my bike today and it runs mint againI:I

dam your lucky, can't say the same I tore down the motor cause i knew there was no compression i didnt even need to test it, anyway I blew the PISS outta my top end heres some pics. Atleast i got to drink some beer and work on her although it only took 30 mins to get the cyl and piston off... HAHA I must have leaned it out because it was 50 degrees out! (instead of 91 degrees in fl) Does anyone know where I can send the cyl to be bore/honed??
