ypvs wouldnt start today only been sat for 2 days managed to bump start it but makes a really strange squeaking noise with engine running now! sounds almost like it's coming from the clutch side if i put it in gear with engine off & turn the rear wheel I can hear the noise any ideas before I strip the barrels again !!!

crank case seal gone perhaps?  ? when u bump start it, does it smoke more from the right hand exhaust than the left ? |

Turns out I think it's the head gasket bike won't start when cold but will bump start
Put pressure tester on rad overnight & took plugs out also..next morning pressure had gone on pressure gauge kicked it a few times & got a mist of water out of plug hole
Put dry plugs in & it started first kick from cold just waiting for genuine gasket & go from there !

Genuine gasket? Don't pay £62.50 like me!!! I take it you've gone to Norbo, he has them in stock at 35 squid. Worth getting a genuine one though.
