1) I still can't open the throttle, cuz as soon as I do that, the bike dies. If I put the choke on, it will rev up naturally to 5-6k rpm. But any more throttle and it will die.
2) As soon as the bike is hot (left it running on the spot for 7-8mins) the coolant reservoir (white container thing on side) started to bubble up, looks like the hose from the radiator is sending hot air through the hose into the bottom of reservoir.
So I panicked and turned her off and I can't dare to start her up again. I've clearly connected a hose wrongly.
(See the attached for reference please)

Where did I mess up now?
When my bike gets fully hot then turned off the engine heat goes into the tank and forms a vacuum as the tank cools. Perhaps that’s why it won’t start? Takes a lot more time for mine tho’ Still, try opening the fuel door to see if it makes a difference.
