84 250r runnning backward tru all gear

[bebeav]

i bought a 84 250r today, i rode it when i bought it and then bring him to home. i try to start it with the kicker but it wouldn't start so i try to start it by pulling it and pushing it in second gear. it made a little sound and then it start, but when i started, like puttputt said "My face said "howdy" to the handlebars" and i found that i was running backward tru all 5 gear.

what's the prob, i want to ride it tomorow???

LMFAO!!!


If it runs backwards then the magnets on the flywheel? are on backwards. Ask the main man Howdy, he can help you fix it.

u need a flywheel puller. i ran into the same problem before. all it is, is a large metric bolt that you thread into the middle and it pushes it off. Honda charged me $19 to do it, but you can buy one off of ebay for that price. I heard that you can actually use your front axle bolt, or something like that because it is the correct size and thread...i dunno give it a try.

man u gotta use the search engine! u owe me :D j/k

You mean the woodruff key? That's not a good sign if it was broke, maybe somebody didn't put the flywheel on right. Make sure you do it right and tighten the nut back down to spec!

[bebeav]

maybe it broke down because of the loosen nut, cause when i unscrew it wasn't tight alot

what are the tighten spec for this nut???

I dunno, but that's probably why it broke because it was allowed to rattle all over the place. Not your fault, but still...I'm sure somebody know's the torque specs.

[brokdown]

torque spec is 47-54 ft-lb.
