Almost sounds like the carb needs attention. Maybe the air/gas needle needs to be turned out to lean it a little (pilot jet) and/or the needle on the slide needs to be adjusted one notch.

 

Did you change the spark plug from the one that came with it to a good quality NGK one? Apparently that causes some grief as well.

 

Yup replaced the plug as soon as i got it.even on slight hills or a minor obstical i can have it near full throtle and it just bogs down wont even spin the wheels

 

do i move the clip down to the point end of the needle or or up to lean it out .

thanks Scott

 

You seem to have a rich condition. Maybe the air filter is dirty, or the carb is out of adjustment and/or dirty itself, or the choke is not working correctly and is still choking. The starter valve may not be closing all the way, anyway here are some possible causes.

Problem: Idling or low speed impaired
Condition Remedy
1. Slow jet obstructed - loose 1. Clean - tighten jet
2. Slow jet outlet obstructed 2. Clean outlet
3. Low speed fuel screw setting incorrect 3. Adjust screw
4. Starter valve not fully closed 4. Adjust valve
5. Float height incorrect 5. Adjust float height
Problem: Medium or high speed impaired
Condition Remedy
1. High RPM "cut out" against RPM limiter 1. Shift into higher gear - decrease RPM speed
2. Main jet obstructed 2. Clean main jet
3. Needle jet obstructed 3. Clean needle jet
4. Throttle vacuum piston not operating properly 4. Check piston operation
5. Filter obstructed 5. Clean filter
6. Float height incorrect 6. Adjust float height
7. Starter valve not fully closed 7. Adjust valve

 

not familar with a starter valve? the bike has done this since first start up,the air filter is still like new.

To make it lean move it away from the pointy end. It makes the needle longer so to speak letting less gas in.
