300 4trax
Hi to all I have a 1997 300 4trax and when I turn the engine off I hear a noise that sounds like something spinning very fast and coasting down. The sound seems to be coming from the kick starter area also the kick starter does not allways work, it feals as though it is trying to spin the engine and then just slips all the way down without spinning the engine over. Anybody else had similar problems? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like your starter(one way) clutch is messed up to me.

Yes, it could cause a ticking or a roaring or a bit of both.
If #3 is messed up then #2 is messed up too. So, you are looking at just over $200 for the parts and whatever your local shop is going to charge for labor. It's hard for anyone to tell over the net if that is your problem for sure so you may want to get someone to actually test it and listen to it in person.

I am pretty mechanically inclined and I have a manual. Is this a job a do it your selfer can handle or is it better left to a shop?
I purchased this atv 4 years ago knowing it made a ticking sound while running. I thought it might have been the valves but they checked good. Then I was told it may be the timing chain. Would the clutches yall have told me about be making a noise that sounded like the valves slapping? I hope to be able to work on it this weekend, planning on taking the side off and going from there. What should I be looking for in the kickstart/clutch area to know for sure what needs repairing?
Thanks for the help.
