I need help
I have honda 200 and whenever I shut the engine off, I can hear something spinning and I don't know what it is so if anyone can help I would really appreciate it
Thanks

 

Sounds like it could be your clutch. Does it occur with the transmission in neutral, or in gear, or both? Does your bike lose engine braking when going downhill when the engine speed is at idle? If so, that's another indication of a clutch problem. I would guess that its the centrifugal clutch (as opposed to the change clutch) and its drum is worn or grooved. Unless someone with more experience responds, it seems a removal of the side cover and an inspection of the clutches is in order. Good luck.

i used to have a lemon trx125 and i replaced the clutch twice and it used to do that.

 

I have a 86 trx200sx and I have the same problem. I don't know what it is ether. Also the axle bolts are striped out.

 

Just wondering but if the clutch basket is worn does that mean that it has to be replaced if it is working properly.

 

coryatver does that only happen when you are in neutral or in gear or both
mine only happens when i am in neutral

 

It happens almost every time i shut it off.

if your basket is worn file the teeth down so the plates will slide it makes a big difference

 

My friend has an '86 200SX and his does the same thing. I used to have an '84 200S and it had practically the same motor. I'm pretty sure the manual said it was what I think they called and oil rotor that was spinning. You were actually supposed to take that part of the case off and clean in when ever you change the oil, I never did it, so I wouldn't know if that would help it or not. This might be the problem, not sure though.
