Dead 02 EC 200
out riding today about 1/2 way down a burly single track my bike started hissing a bit out of the overflow, got out to the flats and opened it up a bit hit third gear and the bike died, like someone pulled the plug, no bang, nothing...
I tried to kick it over once and heard some pretty bad grinding noise, not at all smooth like it was an hour earlier. Got her back to a friends shop who has now taken the top end off, piston looks brand new, everything up top looked great.. thougths on this? Not being totally familiar with the engines not sure where to look. Crank bearings? anyone have a clue? |

Was any coolant in or around tha crank area. Should be easy to spot with the topend off. How does tha crank feel? It should rotate easily by hand with the piston off. If the crank and top end seem fine the next area to look at would be under the right cover. Take the water pump cover and impeller off, you may find the impeller is all buggered up. Next the kickstart and then the side cover can come off. Then take a good look see around. The manual for these biikes can be found here, any of the newer model shop manuals will work for any older model, assuming thats what you have. Good luck I'm sure you will figure it out. These 2t bikes are pretty straight forward and nothing special about the GG to know about .
I had been eyeing your bike on Craigslist. If you got a good deal on it and you don't feel like messing with it I could part it out for you, but you will get it running. Were you at Reiter? Paul from Everett |

If i remember corectly with the ignition still on the crank will have a somewhat notchy feeling. Get some more input than my shadetree inclanations. Gofasters can be an awesome resource if you catch them when they are not to busy. The full rebuild is not to bad, In fact it's kind of fun. I would definately pull the side covers and look around before you tear the case out of the frame. Keep posting observations and questions here, I am sure someone else will chime in.

The pover valve cover has goo in it normally esp. if if it does not have a drain. Do you have the Side covers off yet? I am guessingf your problem lies in one of them. If the crank keyway that holds the ignition on were to let loose it could cause a scenario similar to yours. I have lots of gaskets if you need any let me know. Several years ago I was riding some good stuff of Ben Howard road, I have been thinking of checking it out again, same stuff?

I have a small ignition you could use for awhile if yours is buggered up. Funny thing is I just went to machias a couple weeks ago for the first time. I found some fun, yet short sections of good trail out there.
