so im new to scooters but not new to engines and modding, ive worked on honda's since i was 16, but never small engines like this, i bought this off a coworkers. he bairly got the thing to run, and it only ran 10 times, he decided it was too hard to start and gave up on it, so it sat for about a year. b4 he let it sit he just started throwing money at it trying to fix the problem, ie, he bought a bigger carb with the air filter slapped right on and got rid of the air box, he upgraded the coil pack and the revlimiter, he also spaced the exhaust. now, i havnt had a chance to work on it but it would not start when i tried, i have ordered a new battery and have decided rather than down grading all the mods currently on it, why not just buy a BBK and make use of the bigger carb and coil/rev limiter? what are your thoughts? all info appreciated!!!!

So it doesn't start right now or does it start and then die? Because with all those upgrades you will need to adjust the carb, probably get a bigger jet too but dont worry about that yet. Get it to start first

Check all the hoses and make sure they are not seeping air, make sure fuel filter isnt clogged, if all good..take off the carb and clean it. That is if it atleast starts for a second

thats what i had planned to do, no it does not start but the PO had removed the kick start and made it only electric start which did no good with the battery dead, i put the kick start back and tryd to kick i,.. it went down with little resistance and didnt retract, like it needed to be lubed or most likely replaced

Forget about messing with kick start. Get a battery, charge it and see if it starts. Main things to check for is if ure getting spark and if you're getting fuel to the carb
