eastanglianbiker Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 no offence intended here but it is starting to sound like you are buying a lot of non running/wont start bikes geting as much info from those of us willing to help then move on for profit ready for us to repair t he next one for you i dont mind helping if poss but maybe a donation to the forum might possibly be a good idea if you are making money on the bikes otherwise you have a lot of sons with lots of bikes .......................just my thoughts and of course i might be wrong as i often am..........................

Thinking the exact same thing.Searched through user's posts and 98% are asking for help and there's nothing wrong with that but perhaps give something back to the forum.

So yes you are wrong in many ways, the only profit I get out of these bikes is a happy son at the end of it, so if buying bikes as projects for me and my son to do up is offending you, then I do apologise.. But will not be spoken down to when all I asked for was some advice!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advice is free isn't it.. If you don't want to give it don't reply to my ads.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Same reply to you mate, not being disrespectful but what harm is there in asking for a little advice.. as for donating, me and my partner donates enough to this country in taxes as we work full time.. Advice is free isn't it.. If you don't want to give it don't reply to my ads.. Advice might be free but I slug my guts out in my free time to have this place the way it is so you can get the advice...... This place isn't free to run in terms of server costs.... All they are saying is show a little appreciation and join in more with the forum Think how it looks to others. These guys love giving out advice and helping but if they feel like there been done over they will say so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeman Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 hi all I picked up a 90cc dirtbike all the parts are there oil and fuel in it and new spark plug loads of compression in it but will not start but it sounds like if it will go after every kick over If it sounds like its firing, could be a fuel problem.Remove air filter put hand over the carb, kick a couple of times. Then remove your hand and kick again.Basically choking the engine a bit to draw more fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
