Help/info required for the non technical.
My bike came to a sudden stop in sand yesterday. If you can picture it, the bike went over forwards and sideways so the forces were upwards in the motor.
When I righted the bike the starter motor would spin but not engage.
Any idea what is wrong?
Is there a fix that can be done on the side of the road?
Is this a normal problem, as getting a heavy bike out of the dunes is not an easy task?
thanks
