CANNONDALE ENGINE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HARDDRIVE55]

I AM NEW TO THE CANNONDALES AND I MUST ADMIT IT WAS TWICE AS FAST AS MY KFX400. UNTIL A RECENT BLOW UP I HAVE ENJOYED MY CANNONDALE GREATLY. I AM LOOKING FOR A USED ENGINE TO REPLACE MY LOCKED UP ENGINE. IT IS CABLE CLUTCH AND I WOULD APPRECIATE IF ANYONE HAS ONE FAIRLY PRICED FOR SALE. TO PLEASE CONTACT ME.
IT IS SO NICE OUT AND I WANNA RIDE! I AM WILLING TO TRADE ITEMS SO IF YOU HAVE ONE AND ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING ELSE SAY.... A WELDER OR AIR COMPRESSOR OR CAR AND TRUCK PARTS LET ME KNOW!!!

Why not send it off to get rebuild?

[thedeatons]

I second that, my guess is it needs a crankshaft. Pretty simple really, for someone who knows the engines. The last engie I sold with every update possible sold for $1500. You could easily rebuild yours for that, depending on what happened... Can you give us some more details on what happened?

[cannondale27]

What kind of motor do you want? Stocker? What kind of air compressor do you have?

[HARDDRIVE55]

MY QUAD IS A 2002 CANNONDALE AND ACCORDING TO THE TITLE IT IS A CANNONBALL MODEL I WISH I HAD THE MONEY TO SEND IT OUT TO HAVE REBUILT. THE RIGHT WAY BUT I AM ON A LIMITED INCOME ! I WAS KINDA HOPING I COULD FIND SOMEONE THAT HAD UPGRADED THEIR QUAD AND HAD A STOCK REPLACEMENT MOTOR THEY WANTED TO SELL OR TRADE! FOR SOMETHING OF VALUE SAY..... A CAR OR ... SNOW PLOW SET UP..... OR A TRUCK 4X4............. SOMETHING LIKE THAT... I WOULD EVEN CONSIDER SOME MILD REPAIRS TO BE NEEDED AS LONG AS THE CRANK AND ROD ARE GOOD. I BELEIVE I AM SOMEWHAT MECHANICAL AND WITH THE HELP OF A MANUAL THAT MAYBE I WILL BE ABLE TO PULL IT OFF!!!LOL
I WANNA RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!! LOL!!I NEED AN ENGINE

I LET A BUDDY TAKE IT FOR A SPIN AND WHEN IT CAME BACK IT WAS LOCKED UP. I AM ASSUMING HE WAS BEATING THE CRAP OUT OUT OF IT BUT ACCORDING TO HIM HE WAS JUST PUTTIN AROUND... THE BIKE ALWAYS RAN GREAT AND I HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT I WISH I HAD THE MONEY TO JUST BUILD THE CRAP OUT OF IT AND MAKE A HUGE MONSTER MOTOR BUT UNFORTUNATELY I CANT.... SO IF I CAN FIND SOMEONE LOOKING TO UPGRADE THEIR ENGINE MAYBE I CAN FIND SOME PARTS FOR MINE SO I CAN GET IT BACK TOGETHER. IT IS SO NICE OUT

HE BROUGHT THE QUAD BACK ON A TRUCK. IT GOES IN AND OUT OF GEAR BUT IT WILL NOT TURN OVER AND BACK WHEELS WILL NOT TURN OVER IN 5TH GEAR IF YOU TRY TO PUSH/PULL START IT . I WOULD HAVE TO SAY IT WAS STARVED OF OIL AS THERE WAS NOT MUCH IN IT UPON RETURN OF THE QUAD . WHAT MAKES IT WORSE IS I AM STUCK PAYING THE BILL TO REPAIR IT. SOME BUDDY HE WAS!! I SOLD THE TRUCK TODAY FOR 500.00 WITHOUT THE PLOW SO I HAVE SOME MORE CASH TOWARDS A ENGINE IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME
