I had to bump start it and keep the rpm's up. I made it home, where she wouldn't start at all, just a bit of sputtering, and back fire.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">This is a low hour bike.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">Oil is full and clean.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">Just checked valves and they were perfect (.006 intake and .008 exhaust)</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">cleaned the carb entirely twice</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">fresh fuel</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">petcock on and working</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">kill switch not the issue</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">I got it started once, after i pulled the plug and put the wire on, seemed to run decently, then i tuned it off, and went to start i later and same old problems.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px"><span style="color: #282828">I will be checking the timing and the coils tonight.
