Yamaha Blaster ATV wont start

[Talon]

i was out riding and i heard a sound that was like a snap and my bike shut off and wouldn't start back up and the only thing that i can visually find wrong is there is a crack in the exhaust. would the crack in the exhaust keep it from starting??

no.

1st Check spark, Then check Fuel, Then check compression. The spark should easy to see if you take out the plug, lay it on the head, & push the engine over by hand. The fyel can uasuly be determined by looking at the plug, is it dry ?? The motor shoult have some resistance to being kicked over, No resistance=no compresion. Hope this helps, you can get back to me if you need more help, I am a technition,

Was this fixed?????

dude it is most likely that ur engine needs to be rebuilt. u sould have taken better care of it because i have had a stock 1996 blaster for 3 years and have not had to rebuild the engine once

Hmmmmm,,,,What part of the motor do you think he should rebuild???? Please be as detailed as any Arm Chair mechanic can be....Im sure after a Yr. he might need some help with this:laugh:

I believe in regular maintenance,,,,However,,,,That doesnt always prevent a Catastrophic failure....dont be so fast to jump the gun kiddo
