Hi All,

After some advice on the wifes 125 ybr (06), every few months 3-4ish it has trouble starting, we have had new battery, new leads new spark plug and all works fine for a few months. Now its having trouble again the starter goes and makes all the usual 'just about to start' noises (so think the battery is fine) but it doesn't actually start/ignite the engine, I'll try a new spark plug today but it only had a new one & leads about 3 months ago. £100 bill every 3 months is not good. Also tried kick start-nothing. cheers. :(

Hi mate,without knowing more it could be a multitude of things.Does she do a lot of miles in that time?doyou have to replace the lead or do you just put one on incase?do you always buy the plug from the same place?and is it the proper plug for the bike?do you clean the air filter between times?just a few thoughts to help you narrow it down CHEERS.

Hi She only does about 10 miles a day, last time it went in the shop they replaced the leads and spark plug, we have changed the plug before and made sure it was the right one, Air Filter?? ill have a look in the manual for that one just getting fed up of it thinking of getting it serviced then sell the dam thing,lol
