Bumpint Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 So we went to dumont this past weekend and my 9 year old son was riding his raptor 250 quad. He was messing around banshee hill I told him to takeo ff in second gear .... he ran it a few times and then one time he only make it up half way and lost power. he was able to turn it around and coast back down and he told me that his bike wont go. I jumped on it and it seems as though anytime you put a load on it, it doesnt have power. Is this the clutch? Also i think it is the clutch because when you pull in the clutch it is hard and there is a small "friction zone" when you take off. Can someone tell me what they think it could be.

andydew Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 does the rpm's scream high when this issue arises? That sounds like a clutch slipping to me. OR, does the thing just bog(lose power) under a load... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Sounds like a wasted clutch to me. Shouldn't be too hard of a fix though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
