Jos is looking for a dual sport.

What have you modified, adjusted or replaced since getting the bike?
nothing. It was running great for my entire ride today started in 1 kick all day.. took it home. gave it a quick rinse, changed the tire, they she was hard to start and would not idle, then impossible to start. Carb is clean. Testing coil and timing tomorrow. Killswitch is not the issue either. THinking the coil got water in it or something.
 
Double check the killswitch and all the easy stuff. Like your on/off gas valve. making sure none of your jets got clogged, making sure you have gas :smirk: etc. you guys get alot of rain and puddles up there recently? we did down her tonight

All that has been checked
 
Backfire? Check Valves! :prof:

The jam nut could have loosend.
Will do boss. As I mentioned, I will also be checking timing ant coil tonight. Its just very odd, ran great all day, started 1st kick. Valves just don't fly out of spec like this. Im thinking when I washed it, water worked its way to where it shouldn't be.

Here is how she started just before going home, 1 kick.

right before my bike took its epic shit it was running just great, rode it thanksgiving day, went to ride again in december and it wouldn't run
 
I just checked the valves, clearance was perfect on all 4. The carb is clean.... this is acting like an electrical issue. Testing that tonight.
 
Well, I didn't fix the issue. It went back to nothing with the occasional backfire. Definitely an electrical issue. Bad plug insulator/coil/cdi.
 
Mike has money on water shorting it out
I have money on bad coil
srad has money on bad plug wire
emily has money on bad plug insulator
and bk has money on bad stator

anybody want to take the cdi? or plug?

Change the plug out again, I had a dead one in my sons YZ.
I got money on the plug being dead!
