If you motor is siezed its goona take alot more than WD40 to fix it mate........ I would suggest looking on EBAY for a new motor. They can be picked up pretty cheap ..............What country and state are you from ?

These bikes can have problems with the rear brake seizing so i would check that first. what happens when you push the kick starter down when the rear wheel is off the ground? does the wheel move? are you sure you have found neutral in the gearbox? sometimes it is hard to select, especially when the bike is not running.

If it is an auto then it is not the engine that is seized. it would most likely be the centrifugal clutch is bound up and locked on if it has no shoes left. does the big metal dish spin over the clutch inside the front sprocket? its that or the rear end because with an auto if the engine is seized the bike will still roll.

to be honest mate i have no idea what bike you have as you have not told us. all i can say is a picture says a 1000 words. take a photo of the left hand side of the bike and another closer to the front of the chain.
