Posts: A lot.
edit: i didn't even notice, but the post before me said that same thing. doh!


this probably isn't it... but one day i tried to turn on my bike with the choke as usual. it seemed to be warming up fine, but when i turned the choke off, it would die off. tried 3 times with the same results.

my bike worked fine the time before, so i couldn't figure out what happened. i hadn't changed anything.

anyways, with my little knowledge of my bike i tried just turning the idle control knob on the left side of the bike until it was able to idle on its own again. that did the trick. still don't know why i had to do it though. been running ok again ever since.

probably not the solution for your bike, but it is so simple to do that it is worth a shot. hope you find out what is wrong.
