Just outside of fairbanks ak
Today was a great day, perfect weather, lotsa people riding, mid 80s, just great....... untill my blaster locks up.....

I was riding along having a good time I get halfway down a trail and it starts acting boggy so I turn around, I get about a half mile and it loses all power, dies, and locks up.

I'm about 10 + miles from home ( fortunately I had a cell phone ) so my dad had to tow me back home with the foreman.

get home and it kicks over but it has no comp( and doesn't start up.)

so I tear it all apart and here is what I find.

Sorry the pics suck. the rings melted into the piston then it weged itself into the wall, then when it was cool it was able to move ( what is that called??).:( not a bad blow up but it costs just as much:(
 
why did the ring do that though were you runing to lean? or were you wtfo?

No it was actually a bit rich. I ride on the pipe like a 2stroke should be rode, but I don't beat the sh*t outta it. For the last few months its been acting funny, comp dropped and it made a rattle at high rpms, so I knew it was coming. It seems like the previous owner didn't brake it in correctly.

Sounds to me as if several months ago the piston got worn out of spec to the cylinder which had some piston slap and that's what you heard at high rpms, and today it finally took a serious dump.
 
yea i wanna do a comp test on mine cause if im at like quartle throttle curzing in 6th it makes an obnoxious noise..

Good idea. Thats exactly what mine was doing sept in 3rd 4th and fifth also.

Get that sh*t rebuilt asap! You think you can get away with .60 or do you need to do .80? It looks realllly bad.
