    200es start not engaging just spinning

    Hey Guys
    Just took the 200es for a quick run today! Then started it and the starter just spun and didn’t engage! Even the pull starter wouldn’t engage!
    Haven’t taken it apart yet. Any ideas? Starter clutch worn or teeth grounded down?
    Thanks

    Wow, I have seen them about 2 foot to long, but never broken, check your cam sprocket, see if its bent?

    Yes that’s what I thought! Never thought it would have been a snapped cam chain! Nothing bent lucky! Rode it and stopped to pick up my daughter and heard a small ping sound and then it stopped! Lucky I wasn’t ridding flat out!
