* : Takes forever to start ?
It takes no BS about 75-100 times of electric start tries to get this thing running. Once it does get running if you hit a big bump it wants to die out, but won't because I'm at full throttle and has a chance to get going again. If at lower speeds this happens it will die out and not restart unless I use the electric start, the carb is clean and so is the gas tank.
To me it sounds like a bad float but not sure, what do you think.
Thanks Greg

Clean your carborator. Somtings cloged in their. I had same problem. Turned out to be a washer that deteriorated. As soon as I hit a bump, my bike would die.

My bet is low compression. Fix it b/f you burn up the starter. You need a new set of rings.

Dying on bumps is likely a plugged tank filter issue. Taking "75 to 100 times to start" is likely a low compression issue.
