What's wrong with my dirt bike?
I have a 2001 Honda xr100r. The bike has been running great earlier today, but just now out of nowhere it won't run past 1st gear. It starts fine and I can move in first gear, but when I shift to second it bogs and turns off. What could have happened? Is it the transmission? I was riding just fine an hour ago.
Loss some weight bra
The clutch is slipping you need new clutch plates thise are cheap or you may need a clutch basket which is expensive
New clutch plates
Need more details.
I doubt the transmission has anything to do with the problem.
Ride as fast as possible in 1st gear, then shift to 2nd.
Same problem?
"it bogs and turns off"
This sounds nothing like a transmission problem, so I don't get why everyone is assuming that?
It sounds like a fault with the fuel system, or even spark.
Make sure the spark plug is giving a good spark, is gapped correctly, and the cap has good connection on it.
IF spark is all good (Blue / purple in colour) - Then move onto cleaning the fuel system. Fuel tank, filter, carburettor. It could be a blockage in the fuel line etc.
HOWEVER, before you do all that, also check the air filter. Usually, if to much air gets into the mixture, it will cause the bike to bog out, because it's running lean. Make sure the air-filter has not moved out of its place, or there's no loose rubbers (Like the air-box rubber). You haven't done any modifications that increase the air-flow have you? If yes, you'll need to re-jet.
- Where can i buy a cheap dirt bike? Hi i'm 13 years old and i live in california. I'm saving up for a 125cc dirt bike (probably honda). I was wondering where i can find a good place to buy one that would be cheap. I've seen ones that are around 1000 dollars and i was wondering if there's anything good that would be cheaper or around that. If you can also please tell me if this would be a good bike for me i'm around 5,1. So if you can help me find a good dirt bike that would be great!
- What's wrong with my dirt bike? - 2 It won't change from 1st gear to second gear, when I try to change gears into second it just goes back to neutral. I'm pushing the gear changing up enough hat it should be changing into second but it just won't. And yes I'm using the clutch when I change gears. I started to get this problem with my bike (Honda) when I got stuck going up a super steep and slippery hill at a motocross place. Anybody know?

- What is wrong with my dirt bike? I have a Honda CRF 250X 2004. I haven't run it in about a year. I fired it up today. I let it run for about 30 minutes. Then it over heated and coolant leaked out. It has oil and the radiator has fluid. It also has coolant. What do you think could be issue?
