I know it's no yamaha. But my little 125 ts is running messed up. Last week it was running awesome. I parked it then 30 minutes later it wouldn't start or run with out the choke. Then it ran fine with the choke on. After that it wouldn't start at all. I just pulled the carb apart and it was clean as a whistle. I sprayed it out with some carb clean, put it back in, check to make sure i was getting a nice healthy spark and it fired right up with out the choke, which is fairly peculiar. When it started it sounded kinda puttery compared to it's usual purr. There was like an extra little pop in it. Wondering what anyone thinks this could be. Not to mention, i could only ride for 10 seconds then it would die out and not start back up. I'm confused. When i pulled the plug it was soaked. I was thinking timing. For grins i was also going to check compression. but i'm not sure where i stand now. Anyone?

It's flooded, take the plug out and leave it out at least overnight, then try again, if it starts switch off the fuel until the engine stops...then you're good to go

wow thanks, that cleared me right up. Left the plug over night then just let it run til it died. turned the gas back on and it ripped. so again, THANKS!
