[QUOTE="customfab, post: 1322454, member: 62781"] 01 RM250. So I will start but saying that I'm an absolute dumbass. I had been adding aftermarket parts & drained my tranny oil without refilling immediately. I meant to get around to it but had no plans to ride or start I was waiting for a new magneto. So after a few weeks I replace the magneto and adding a JD jet kit. So I started the tuning procedures last night but without tranny oil!! :bang: I realized it after I jumped on the bike and road maybe a 1/4 mile. It seemed to shift fine and I quickly added the required oil and began final tuning. Shortly after running WOT (for the 2nd time but with oil) the motor starting dying & I noticed it was behaving funny. That's it now. She'll fire up very briefly (like 1-2 secs) & then die. Compression seems ok at 180 psi. I pulled the top end and can't find anything noticeable wrong. Piston diameter within specs, bore ok, etc. All clean, no scoring, no metal particulates, etc. However, I noticed that the rod doesn't spin freely on the crank. Thoughts on this one? I figure I'm up for some $$ and at least one long day on lower unit rebuild? :bang: [/QUOTE]
