Remove the emulsion tube and clean it. You have a dirty/clogged main jet. The only reason it runs correctly at times is the fuel enrichment circuit in its cold state is making the the mixture rich.

Re: Need new battery

Ebay, 1st web sales sells amg batteries for less than 25 clams shipped. They work just fine. There are only a few battery manufacturers that fabricate batteries that fit in bikes,ski's and scooters. Save some money if you can wait a few days.

Re: 1988 Elite E - Sluggish Performance

Remove your muffler and take a look at the exhaust port from the muffler side. If it os packed with carbon you found the problem. Do not use anything sharp to clear the carbon. I use a plastic shrimp devainer.........lol

Re: brake in question

The brake hone has a tendency to break the stones when you go past the ports. You can damage the cylinder when that happens. A ball hone is the ticket. 32 to 1 is 4oz of oil to one gallon of fuel. 62 to one in 2oz to a gallon of fuel.
