I picked up a big red 250 on ebay last month and finally started working on it. It was missing all the rear axle components so I ordered all of them. But I thought I should see if it would start before I got to deep. I hot wired it since it was missing the key and cleaned the carb. It will start for a second which is fine but the question is when I kick it over it will some times just spin freely and make a ratcheting noise for a while. I'm assuming something is just sticking because everything else is. Any suggestions before I tear into the sidecase?
