Hey guys ,
Im new to riding and to this site. i just bought a 2003 yamaha yz 125 I had it at the shop last week to get a tune up ,new spark plug, change fluids etc, and put in a fmf exhaust. i went riding on sat and hit a jump and landed doing a endo. the bike dropped on its right side (brake side) but didnt drop that hard. I bent the brake lever but I didnt see any other damage. well I tried to start the bike and it wouldnt start. when I got home I took out the spark plug to clean it and sandpaper it down. still no good. I tried to push start it, it turns over when I drop the clutch but once my friend stops pushing it shuts off. my friend thinks the carberator is flooded. but I dropped the bike on saturday and its monday now, shouldnt it have dried up by now? i'd really like to ride again soon and I dont want to bring the bike back to the shop and pay more $$$, so any help would be much appreciated. thanks :ride: oh, one more thing, when im riding and i come to a stop in 1st gear and i have the clutch in my bike just shuts off. someone told me dat b/c these bikes arent ment to idle so it shuts off. but if i have the clutch in shouldnt it not make a difference if im in 1st, or neutral and not moving? the bike should stay on shouldnt it? do i have a bad clutch?
