Ok well I have a 96' 300ex, my problem is that the starter is engaging for only a few seconds then it no longer engages but the starter is still spinning????????? Just wondering if anyone has had this problem & what they did to fix it??
So any help would be appreciated THANKS [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

i dont know, but i noticed this happening on my raptor lately, if i jump up and down on the seet it grabs though... i think its the oneway bearing!?!

 

LOL well maybe I better get to jumping up & down on my seat [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] yeah a buddy was just over & was saying something about the Raptors doing that I'm on the phone w/ my friendly parts guy now seeing if they have a replacement bearing or something!!

I know of a 416ex with a Cam, Pipe, Carb, and Rev box that eats One Way Starter Bearing about 1 every 6 months or so. I would imagine the 300ex of yours is having the same problem.

Try PlanetHondaRacing for parts

 

Ya know, I started thinking about this, it really started getting bad after we did the mods to it, it's not HEAVILY modded but it does have a high compression piston,cam,rockers,400 carb,full FMF system so I've heard taht once you bump up the compression like on a 400 it's best to get a "bigger" battery for the compr??? Anyway thanks for the link

 

One way bearing ( Sprag ) behind the flywheel going bad.
