me and a buddy were riding a his bayou 300. it had no oil-so we put some in it. later we went for a ride and as we were going-it sounded as if some one hit the gear shifter and it reved up real hi. now it wont come out of gear-it will crank by pull cord so i know its not the engine----i need some advice on wat it might be or how to fix the trans... the dealer wants 90 buks to just look at it and i got it.help!!!

what oil did you use? car oil? the friction modifiers in car oil can mess with how your clutch grabs, but thats usually over time.
it sounds like a shift fork may be broken. dealer time unless you have the time/space to take it apart

iv never heard of car oil hurting a clutch THAT fast, it usually takes alot of rideing and time before car oil will kill a clutch. more likely its a shifter fork. what gear is it stuck in?
if its stuck in first or reverse you can try adjusting the reverse cable. the reverse cable runs from the handlebars to the tranny. if ther isnt enough tention on it, or too much tention, it wont allow you to shift.
like i said before it sounds like a shifter fork in the tranny
