If you mean the engine just revs and there is no drive, maybe it has a gear selector issue. The 5th gear is like an overdrive. I would take it to a Yamaha repair shop for advice.

DO NOT ride this bike until it is repaired! Do ALL these repairs OUTSIDE. Remember fuel goes Bang! The seat end of the tank is the lowest point and that is where the fuel out pipe is located. Most modern motorbike (and car) fuel systems are pressurised so the injectors work correctly. That will be why is sprays fuel when you turn the ignition on. The leak could be a pin hole or a crack that only opens when the fuel pump pressurises the system. Starting at the tank, clean and dry everything. This issue is likely to be somewhere between the fuel pump and the injector / throttle body. Once everything is dry turn the ignition key to the power On, engine OFF position for no more that 2 seconds. Your trying to 'Burp' the fuel system. Remove the key and recheck everything from the actual tank to the throttle body on the engine. Your looking for the highest point where it has become wet again. Check the fuel outlet point on the tank, the actual welded seams on the tank. Any fuel lines from the tank along it's full length. look carfully at any pipe connections to the injector and the throttle body. The leak should show up as a new wet area where it was previously dried by you. It is most likely a loose or nipped fuel line or a bent feed pipe into the throttle body.

I'm assuming it was a new starter motor not a second hand unit. Not all 'new' batteries are fully charged when you buy them so if you have a charger put the battery on charge overnight to make sure it is at it's max. Next turn everything else OFF before you start the bike. Each thing you turn on like the lights takes power away from the battery. features like the lights and fuel pump don't use a lot of battery power but a starter does. With a multimeter set to DC Volts check for power supply to the starter itself and to the Solenoid that triggers the starter motor. You should get somewhere around 12.6 volts. Does the bike start if you 'jump' the solenoid? (a thick INSULATED wire or an INSULATED screwdriver across the large terminals of the solenoid). You could check if the actual engine turns to make sure it isn't seized. First put the bike on it's centre stand NOT the side stand as you will need the rear wheel off the ground to do this. Get a helper to gently lean on the handlebars to keep the rear wheel clear of the ground. With the engine OFF, with the key OUT and the bike in neutral, keep well clear of the chain and rear sprocket (toothed cog). Roll the wheel by hand. It should spin freely with just the sound of the chain quietly clicking and possibly a quiet 'hiss' from the rear brake. Put the bike into gear, 2nd or 3rd if you can. Try to roll the rear wheel by hand. You will get resistance but it should turn. You should get regular spots of resistance (compression stroke) and free rolling (exhaust stroke). Roll the wheel through 4 or 5 full turns to make sure it doesn't lock up part of the way round. Buying a non-runner is always a roll of the dice. Sometimes you inherit someone elses mechanical headaches.

Sounds like the sensor broke apart. I would be taking the side cover to see what bits are floating around! https://www.google.com/search?q=2005+Yamaha+V-Star+1100+Silverado%2C+my+speedometer+stopped+working this is the sensor https://www.google.com/search?q=2005+Yamaha+V-Star+1100+Silverado%2C+speedometer+sensor ..

Ignition coils are probably breaking down in the heat. I would start there.

It has a history of it. Your best bet it to take it to a Yamaha dealer and get it tuned up. It is likely to be a carburetor issue not closing properly. https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+Yz450f+high+revs+at+idle ..

Question edited for clarity, add maker. Question moved to Category. Check out the link. It it backfires through the exhaust the timing is retarded and firing too late. https://www.google.com/search?q=yamaha+yz80+set+ignition+timing ..

Ushud rev engine when downshiftn. Ithink ur carb needs ajustn on throttl and at idle. Clutch mite need it too. Buy a clymer shopbook like the pros use

Depends on which tyres are fitted.

First try going back to basics. It might take a few attempts to pull the fuel through to the injectors but if it still won't start there must be another issue that needs looking at. Crank in short bursts to avoid flatting the battery too quickly. When was it last serviced? Fresh plugs and filters can make a bigger difference than you think. Cranking and not trying to start is often a spark issue. Cranking, trying but stalling out is commonly a fuel supply issue.

A batt must read 12.6v for acoil ign...no less. Testit w a multimeter. Twelve volts is actually disharged. Getta new batt if it doesnt hold charge

Hello. I found several Yamaha motorcycle electric wiring diagrams this site: https://www.motomanuals.net/

If you don't have the manufacturer's specs or an operators handbook then your next best solution is to check the oil manufacturer's recommendations. Different oils for the 2 strokes can have a wide range of mixture ratios. If you follow their recommendations for the Yamaha 2 stroke the warranty and guaranty for will be applicable for the ratio they recommend.
