Hi there. i Recently got my bike up and running again after replacing the batterly with a new one i baught of mikexs.
I'v road it for a week with no problems, but the last two days the bike has been stalling after coming to a stop at stop lights, almost every time I come to a completle stop with out rolling a bit on the throttle it stalls. after 2 or 3 stalls in the middle of the road the electric started stopped working. it sounds like it is not even able to turn the engine. it will make maybe one or two really bad sounding attempts to start then do nothing. at that point i started using the kick starter. that worked half the time, the other half i would find a hill to push start the bike. at this point i barly got the bike home and the last half mile or so the bike really just didn't sound like it was running properly. it sounded like it was working way to hard when i would roll on the throttle. and when i came to a stop in my garage it could barly get up the drive way and then stalled as soon as i came to a stop with the clutch in.
At this point im not sure how i should aproach this problem. should i change out the spark plugs coils and other parts that are related to the ingnition system. or should i completly dismantle the carburator, clean everything out and replace any gaskets/o rings that are warn?
Hope you guys can help, just my luck that as soon as the sun starts shining in Oregon my bike breaks.
