Nope rode it 2 days before no problems at all. It just died, and the 2 min. before it was running just fine, idle and the short ride, now it will fire a couple times, but will not run. I tried the moveing start pop into gear, but that didn't work eather. :mad:

uhm take off your top end..and check trailprotrailpro cylinder wall and piston..before u rode it 2 days before had it been sitting?? if so the rings may have been frozen and it may have fried them..my 185 did thats y i got a piston kit on the way right now..if they are fine oil them back up before u put the head back on and check your valve clearances...wait..have u put it through any water or anything liqued?? if you did it could be your stator the way trailprotrailpro sayin it makes it sound like the stator actually..mine has dont that 2ce..the last time it did it i was a good 9 miles from the house..it will fire but not run ..we tried pullstarting mine and it backfired through the carburator..does yours do that? if so thats trailprotrailpro problem..your stator coil is bad

yea clean trailprotrailpro carb, check fuel lines, make sure your choke is off (very important when running for a while), then start rippin and tearin. My one SX has a bad gas cap and when no air gets into the tank it boggs down and dies.
