Took it out trail riding yesterday and for some weird reason the spark plug burned out on me with no way to fix it so i had a buddy tow me home.I guess i made a big mistake by trying to pop it in gear while being towed and now its leaking oil in a steady stream..maybe out the front sprocket area or the left cover there behind the high / low gear switch .
Anybody got any idea what i tore up and maybe what it will take for me to fix it?
:(

you could have possibly thrown the chain and put a hole in your engine casing we need some pics tho

well damn i guess i need to start tearing crap off that side of the motor till i get to the bottom of the leak.
nothing to really take a pic of though.maybe its a gasket or something on that side of motor.not sure ..didnt leak a drop before.

theres no way oil would be coming out in a stream unless you cracked something. You will have to have a closer look!!

:beer :w00t:
hey guys thanx for the advise.
I did have a closer look.
im so fn happy right now i found the problem and dont have to tear it apart again.
there was a little bolt 8mm down under the hi/low gear casing that was about a 1/4 inch backed out.Was leaking oil like crazy from there.
so im tightening up every bolt i see on this thing .they all seem to be kinda loose.
Just weird to me that it would all of a sudden back out like that.
anyways super happy right now!
