Hello,\
I hope this is the right place to post this sort of topic as i am fairly new to crf ownership and brand new to this website so my apologies ahead of time.
I was trying to start my 2015 crf250L today. ITs been stored over winter and not warmed shed, covered and lifted off the ground
The engine was struggling to start so i gave it a little squeeze on the throttle to try and get it going and suddenly and LOUD Thud/Crack/boom (just one) happened from the engine and i stopped right away. I then was able to smell something weird like as if something was burnt or recently exploded.
I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if this was a backfire or if it might be something more serious like a blown engine or what not.
I'm new to owning toys like this so any help would be greatly appreciated for piece of mind.
Thanks so much ahead of time.
