It sounds like what happened to my friends quadsport. He broke the rod, but for you it might just be that he blew out a gasket somewhere in the topend of the motor. Is it leaking oil anywhere?

It sounds like its time for a engine rebuild. Do you have any compression, problaly not. The piston isn't moving.

I hope you or some friends are mechanically inclinded.

Great that your mechanically inclined,

Get a Clymers or Honda Service manual & get into the engine. I used Clymer to rebuild my kids Z-50R.

Good Luck

I think the transmission was shifted between gears and then wide-open throttle applied with no crank shaft load, resulting in extreme high RPM. The engine was a little worn and so a maybe kinda loose. Something was overstressed and broke. Maybe a piston crown, maybe the rod ... Time for a tear down.
