I have a brand new foreman. Its a month old. When I was riding this afternoon I noticed it losing power. I stopped and checked the oil. It was perfect. So I keep riding, then I noticed it was smoking white smoke every now and then. So I stopped and checked the oil again. Samething it was perfect. I decideed to head home then it went dead. When I went to crank it up it was making a horriable noise like screcking and knocking. Now the starter hardly turns it over and it is making the noises. We changed the oil and oil filter yesterday but I have rode 10 miles since then so I need some input.

I have the 6 month warrenty. What all would void it? And does the warrenty cover the engine?

Well there was this one time.... JK Yeah I was just riding though the woods riding alittle hard but not that bad. Anyway I'm going to clean it up and try to get it to the dealer.

I read on here about people sealing the pull rope. I didn't do this and I ride in alot of water just tuesday there where a couple of times that water came up to the seat. Could water have gotten into the motor that way.

Plus if water would have got in the motor from the pull rope when I changed the oil wouldn't that have got it out?

I'm taking it in this week and see what they say i changed the oil and fixed it right so we will see what they say.

When I took my back back in on monday it would run but made a knocking noise. The service manager said that it was just the vaules. They adjusted them and still was knockin. They did a compression test and it was 18lbs less than what it should have been. They told me to ride it like it is. If the warrenty does not cover the work they said it would be 1600 bucks but the only way would be if it had water or dirt in the motor. I know that it does not have water or dirt. What should I do?

So the warrenty didn't cover it? I know my motor doesn't have water in it. And if for some reason they say it does I am going to be pissed.
