i was riding sme trails yesterday and went down a really steep creekside, both sides were about 15 feet tall and very steep. well, i start going up the other side and the front tires start coming off the ground pretty good and i got scared and rolled back down. tried again and same thing. so i get off and try to walk behind it and walk it up the hill. well, it dies and when i try to start it again, it lunges every time the starter rolls over, the clutch isnt working, and there is some smoke coming from under the seat area. sounds to me like i froze the clutch to the pressure plate from too much heat. is that what i did. it sat for about 10 minutes and then my frined came and we pushed it out and it started right up and the clutch worked fine, except the clutch lever is real loose and easy to pull in. what did i do, how/should i fix, is it covered under warranty? thanks

Sounds like you overheated the clutch, it happens. Nothing you can do about it really to make it not happen when you do what you did (slipping the clutch and walking it frmo behind) Depending on how bad you did it, you may need new clutch fibers or it may ride fine once it has cooled back down.
