350x kick start stuck.

[Jim mac]

I installed the correct decompression lifter, cable etc andth trike would kick fine the other night when I was done. today, I filled the stator cover hole where the chain wore a hole. I didn't push anything in it, just made a cap with jb weld.
I started messing with the trike and the kick start is locked up, won't let me kick it over. I pulled the ig and still stuck. put it in gear, rocked it back and forth while pushing down on the kick start and it freed up, kicked over fine about 10 times and got stuck again. Is there anything under the stator cover or should I just pull the head and make sure nothing got left behind? jim

pulled the stator cover and didn't find any issues. pulled the valve cover and 1 of the cam bolt is just flopping around stripped! Reason it was getting stuck is the bolt head was hitting the side of the cylinder and stopping the motor! so I have to break out the tap and maybe go to 5/16 fine thread and lock tite. But I'm glad it did what it did when I was loosely kicking it. jim
