never too old to ride Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 After topping up with fresh fuel my wife's YH50 wouldn't start, topped my bike up at same time no problems. Cleaned plug topped up charge on battery and managed to get it started it revved well with the rear wheel off the ground but when the throttle is released it died and will not start again, any ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Variomatic Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Like airhead said, maybe a mucky carb. Has it sat for a while? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
