Make sure you have spark. Pull the plug out, put it in the boot, and then set it against the cylinder. Turn the engine over and watch for sparks to go across the gap. Does it still shift through the gears? More info helps. As much as you know.

yes all works there is spark, engine turns great all gears work. engine sounds like its going to start some times butt do not. i was tinking the timing chain could have skip put i did not hear any noise it just staled.
Check compression,,and you are more than likely right that you jumped time. Was it rattling before ? If so,,it could have. But go back to the basics. You have spark,fresh fuel? Then you need compression,,IN TIME. Check compression,valve timing and adjustments.

How long were you doing the wheelie for?
Check to make sure your carb float isn't stuck in the upright position ( this exact thing happened to me once)
I would check your compression, if its good, go for timing .
Unless you had one noisy/sloppy 350X motor, I can't see it jumping time. I can see a fuel issue though which is a simple check........
Define "cleaned my carb".
All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country
the first ting i did was cleaned my carb. it could be my timing chain because my chain was doing a little bit of noise. if my chain would have skip it would have did some sort of noise right ? i did not hear anything when it staled. i did knot do a compression test yet put it still kicks hard and i rebuilt my engine last year so it shouldn't be my compression.
first thing i always do on anything that wont start is make sure the fuel is ok, open the float bowl drain screw, and let the fuel flow through the carb for a minute. if you do that, know you have a nice fat spark, and ass enough to kick it, then its something else!

something doesnt sound right where you heard timing chain slapping/noise, when it was just rebuilt last year....

If you heard noise before. The landing from a wheelie that fast could very easily have jumped time. That throws your compression " off". I m not referring to worn valves or rings. If you properly CLEANED your carb and everything is right. New spark plug,and it doesn't run,It's a mechanical issue,my guess being timing from your description. Let us know what you find please!

im going to check my timing chain. and i was going to change my chain ofter i am done my new engine.
i did my compression test and it was 140psi that knot good. but is -6 outside and you should do your compression test when engine is hot.
i checked my timing and it was good but my timing chain was stretched so i removed it and i am going to buy a new one.
should i buy a Honda chain for 120$ or a aftermarket one if there's any?
