[QUOTE="scouringpad, post: 44649, member: 19402"] While riding this Sunday a buddy dumped his '00 KDX200 on a hill right in front of me. The bike ended up almost upside down, with the handlebar jammmed into the side of the hill, throttle stuck open, while he slid back down the hill. It ran wide open for 8 or 10 seconds as he tried to crawl back up to it, and just as he got there it made a sort of screeching noise and quit. When he got it back down on the flat, it started right up, but intermittently is still making a noise that sounds like a dry, worn out bearing (a sort of screech/rattle noise). I believe the bike quit when it ran out of fuel, being upside down, but am not sure what to make of the noise. We had a 9 mile ride back to the truck, and the noise was not as loud, and more infrequent when we got back, but it's still there. I believe it to be a clutch related noise, and am wondering if anyone on here has had a similar problem, or can offer insight into exactly what may be going on? The bike is all stock, with maybe 400 miles on it. Throttle openings do not affect the noise, and pulling or releasing the clutch do not make any difference either - it just starts, makes noise for a couple seconds, and then stops. I took it for a brief ride when we got back, and could not get it to make any noise, so it seems to be going away, but is there a problem here that should be addressed...? Any input would be appreciated! -Chris ------------------ [/QUOTE]
