@declan i have tried 2 diffrent spark plugs thats what i mean i even had someone hold onto the end of the HT lead and kicked it over several times and they didnt even get a shock so im guessing its eaither the coil or ht lead ... the bike just sounds as if its flooded or running too rich as a week old plug was black before i tried two new ones stuck for idears or the no how looks like its going to have to go to the bike shop

Mate, it won't start if there is no spark. So stop going on about flooding when your issue at this moment in time is the spark.

Also check any safety interlocks (sidestand, neutral switch, etc) Cannot be anything too taxing,

[Randall]

Done what you said mate and she fired up 2nd kick but will not tick over in nuteral and dies and as soon as it reaches below 2000s revs the bike will cut out any suggestions

@jamesrandall93 sounds like your carb needs cleaning to me

[Randall]

@finnerz89 sorted it had to adjust the throttle screw so bike was idel at low revs to warm up ...

[declan]

@jamesrandall93 what’s it idle at now?

[Calum]

The bike should be idling around 1500-2200 RPM's. If it's not, then there is something wrong. It's not a four stroke, it shouldn't be idling around the 1K mark.
