Will it kick through because today i was messin around in the backyard not realizing i was riding most first gear and fell over and it made clank noise so i shut it off and i got up and tried to kick it but it wouldnt kick through so i took the head cylinder off and it was in good shape , the crank was not locked up so i took off the right case side by the clutch and it still wouldn't kick through so im debating if its the crankshaft or output shaft

Its easy to see if the output shaft snapped at the oiling hole. Just pull your clutch side cover off and look at the end of the out put shaft. Most of the time you will find the end of the shaft laying in the clutch cover. But if yours is locked up that piece could be stuck in the kick start gear. When mine broke i could still kick it but it would skip teeth going through the kick. Ended up being the end of the output shaft broke letting the tranny flex and skip. Thats where i would start.
