Title says it all. I need to see if my starter is bad or my engine is grenaded.

I had someone push me and I tried to compression start it but the wheel just skid and would not turn. And trust me I am no small person.

Have you pulled the starter and tried to turn it over off the bike?

No not yet. Just would not start last night. I will try the lower gear idea first. If it still does not work then we go intensive.
I will bring this topic into the general area.
