The other day i was trying to start my 400ex and i ended up flooding it and draining down the battery so i put it on the charger and let it charge up a lil bit but when i press the start button all i hear is a spinning noise, i hooked up a jump starter thing to it and it still wouldnt start does anybody know what might be causing this?i think its the solenoid but im not too sure

Sounds like it may be that your starter isnt engaging fully,or that the teeth may be torn off the gear.I never had a starter off an EX,but if its anything like a car,It could be either of those.That is if the "spinning noise" you're hearing is actually the starter spinning.I hope this helps.

Sounds like you sheared your timing key.

I took it to TandT this morning and it was something like a one way clutch or something i dunno but its fixed now also got a set of rear holeshot xcr-03 tires
