It turns out that I have rich fouled plugs on both bikes with only 7 hours of run time. that is causing my bikes not to idle. I installed new plugs last night and they ran fine. the problem I don't believe is the plugs something is causing this I just don't know what? I think these bikes might have 40 miles on them.
any Ideas????

I am from south Texas, about 50 feet elevation, i have already adjusted the thumb throttle slack. I think the carbs need to be adjusted the dealer here won't work on them but there is one in El Campo that will and the dealer i bought them from told me to take it there and they will cover it so they run correctly. I was happy with that. I'll take them tomorrow and let ya'll know what they find

Are they efi? if so dont just start them and let them run for a couple of minutes and shut them off , when you start them, let them run for aminute and get on em and ride em till there warmed up,Ive seen some others do this. dont let them sit and idle very long.

no they are carbs. I have never had this problem with another carburetor machine ever. I have had to set carbs with an analyzer on cars. They are going to the dealer today
