Engine starting problems

[kimp]

g'day guys,

recently my bike has been having issues starting. i have an MSO 140S, so the motor is a Lifan 140.
it takes me around 15 or so kicks to start it and it has never done this before. In those 15 or so kicks, the motor doesnt sound like its kicking over.
Any ideas on why this is?

cheers,
kimp

try the basics first
spark
fuel
so hence plug leads carbie ,clean them and replace pug and such
these things dont just run forever on no maintenance

 

[no_crf50_here]

change plug, check valves

cheers for the help
ill probably take it in for a service this weekend
