What do you mean by quit running? If you can't start it it might be the solinoid. Try taking a screwdriver and put it across the two terminals to try starting it. Other wise it might be the starter itself.

 

Kazuma West or maybe Ticket2Ride Motorcycles in Temecula. If you call Kazuma West
tell Frank you bought it at his sons old shop. :-)

 

I have a brand new kazuma falcon 110 that will not start. It was running fine when I picked it up last week. My son & I were riding it Sunday when it back fired and died. It is turning over, getting gas and firing. It is also blowing gas back through the carb to the air filter. It has not been wet and I have tried pressing on the rear break pedal when starting. PLEASE HELP?

 

Hi, NO the thing was running and just quit it tries to start but can't quite get there. We are a harley bike shop but we do have some knowledge of metrics. Well, the guys do. they have tested the wiring, the starter, everything electircal. but can't figure this one out.

 

jhw, try a new spark plug. If it still wont start try to "pop start" it.

 

I have a Kazuma Falcon 150. Had it about 6 months. Back in the summer I went to start it one day and all it would do is turn over. Wouldn't even try to start. I removed the carb and cleaned it. Sprayed carb cleaner. Put
back on. Still all it would do is turn over. Checked the spark plug. It was firing.

To make a long story short, it would start and run with the air filter box removed. But when the airbox was connected to the carb it would die. Seems the automatic choke was not operating properly when the airbox was conncted. I repositioned the carb to airbox tube several times until it would run hooked up.
It took me about a week of working with the carb and airbox to get this straightened out.

I don't know if this is the problem with yours, but you might try unhooking the carb to airbox tube and see if yours
will run.

As I said before, we have had our Kazuma for about 6 months. I got it for my 10 year old son.
I ride it too. I'm 50 years old, weight about 195 lbs. Pulls me just fine. Now, I make my son ride responsibly.
So far so good with it. I've read in this forum about other folks having bad luck with Kazuma, but except for the not running problem I described above, we are pleased with it.

This Falcon came in the crate and I assembled it in about 30 minutes. It fired up immediately when we hit the start button. I am somewhat mechanically inclined ( poor boys have to be), but most anyone with a socket set and bacic other tools can work on these.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info guys. I have put a new spark plug in it and I just got through cleaning the carb and it still will not start. I have also removed the tube from the carb to the air box. How do I pop start it?

I found a shop in Temecula off of Pear Street called "Shock Therapy". These guys set up race bikes, but took a look at the Kazuma ...broke it down Barney style for me, very reasonably priced, and all is good again with world!!!! Thanks Mike for responding.

 

JWH,
Did you get your 110 running? The motor should turn over with the airbox unhooked.

 

We received a Kazuma 110 SFX falcon a/k/a baby falcon. I believe that it differs from the standard falcon in that it is not as tall. Anyway, this is my 9 y.o. daughter's. It seems a good fit for her, if slightly large, and doesnt look overly small with an average-sized adult female on it. It is a bit narrow. In any event, the sfx will complement her 7 y.o. sister's sunl 70. They look good riding together. Both bikes came from raceway.

Assembly was pretty straight forward. As mentioned by someone else, I used the 16 lock washers in the bag with the lug nuts, tho the lug nuts are not the type commonly used with lock washers - lip on one side. A huge number of identical flat washers were sent and I haven't a clue as to their purpose, aside from 8 that I used when installing the back leg protectors. Battery filling is straightforward and did not cause a mess. The battery did not require charging.

As to cranking, I noticed the mixture screw was very loose. I tightened it and backed off a turn or two. I then added gas. After figuring out the two fuel on/off valves, it cranked. I had to idle it up. I let it idle for about a half hour as suggested by 2manytoys.

Later, I drained the oil. I have a narrow but long funnel which works good if you remove the seat to access the oil fill cap. It only takes about 1/2 quart or so. I had to remove the air box to access the air filter. I oiled it with 10/40 motor oil. I've always used motor oil with lawn mowers, etc fitted with foam filters. I then greased to two fittings on the front, lubbed the chain and checked nuts and bolts for tightness. The rear brake had to be tightened.

There is a light system mounted on the handle bar bracket which indicates current gear. It is not working for reverse, I will have to check this. My nine year old finds it useful as she doesn't have a "feel" for rpm yet. If anyone has any insight, into fixing this so that it will work for reverse too, please post.

I have another question too. What is the short rubber fuel line/vacumn line that is on the carb near the choke lever which is connected to nothing?
