Well I picked up a second "just in case" parts bike for 200 bucks.
I brought it home changed the oil (lesson learned) and swapped the obviously dirty carbs with my carbs that had just been cleaned. I got the bike started with starting fluid and hit the throttle and it revved right up! I was so excited!
Then it died....
What am I missing here? Is it only running on the starting fluid?
It didnt matter if choke was on or off...
I'm guessing it isn't getting fuel but I know fuel is getting to the carbs.
