    Bike keeps stalling

    Every time I come to a stop, I will have the clutch pulled right in, and it will stall.

    I usually give it some revs so that it doesn't stall but at the same time I have to keep the brake on otherwise I'll take off

    It feels like when i'm at a stop doing that, it's flooding the engine or something.

    It usually stalls anyway.

    What's the problem???

    Your clutch needs adjusting.

    you are pulling in the lever on the left when you stop aren't you ? sorry, couldn't resist a little dig

    Is your cable streched ? is there any/to much free play in the lever ? There should be an adjuster on the lever, where the cable comes out, undo the lock nut thing and adjust, wind the little knurled bit out I think ?
    Give that a try and get back to us

    Unless it's hydraulic

    On your bike you have to turn the key to the left, 3 turns every week or so, thats why its called a keeway.

    Dont worry if it seems abit reluctant to turn at first (its probably just abit stuck from not being done for a while) just give it a big twist, it should lossen up pretty quick.

    Probably something to do with stretched powerband. What colour is it?

    Adjust the clutch cable
