Hey guys, putting the cry out for help to get me bike going.

Just came back from a Wof and Fork oil refill yesterday and she died on me going down from home brooklyn to work. Had to leave her on the street side.
:(

Think it's electrical? thinking lose cable, but not sure. The starter motor goes, it just doesnt catch. but it ran for 5 or so mins. I have fuel (not much - just hit reserve) but have run it on less...

Anyway I'm at work today til 11pm and then at work 2moro 7am to 3pm.

Anyone out there able to have a look at it with me after 3pm Sunday? I dont have much inthe way of maintenance knowledge. can you PM me please?

Thanks is advance!

Matt

First thing with would be put some gas in it, even t ho you run it on less putu some in

If the start motor is turning and bike is not starting its mostley fuel or spark

Yeah I'd put more gas in anyways, you never know your luck. And does a starter motor still go if you've bumped the kill switch?

Well it turns out it was a gas prob. Had enough, but something went wrong when switching from main to reserve. had the bike a year, and didnt know about the 'pri' setting to prime it.

Aaaaanyway, time I slinked outta here. :wari:
