casper Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) I have a 05 290 Sherco and it goes into reverse at least once every trial. Any help with problem would be much appreciated. Edited April 19, 2007 by casper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 The ignition timing is too far advanced, see Sherco website for how to retard it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack_h Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have a 05 290 Sherco and it goes into reverse at least once every trial. Any help with problem would be much appreciated. It only happens on mine when its reved in neutral - is that the same problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copemech Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 I would agree with above comments, but seems I recall another fellow a while back said he fixed it with a stator replacement. Ck the woodruff key first, and the stator plate position. But it does lead me to believe that the the ignition module(coil pack) may be very sensitive to disruptions sent by the stator , as it really does not know which way things are rotating! Never seen it myself, but that is why we share here! Let us know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
