I have a 2 stroke 50cc roketa (Rhon) mc-15-50, and recently after 2 hours of riding it started cutting in and out, and today (the day after) it is continuing. What could be causing this? And how do I fix it?
Thanks in advance!!

could be a dirty carburetor you can take it apart and clean it and the jets i would check the sparkplug too may need to be replaced and make sure the sparkplug wire is on the plug tight, check to make sure the air filter is clean and make sure you are getting gas and that the vacuum line is attached and not crimped, start with the basics and go from there

If you don't want to clean it out, just pour 1/2 a bottle of Chemtool B12 in your fueltank.
It's probably10x the recommended dose, but for sure after a tank of that, the carb should be clean.
If you're not sure, put some seafoam in the next tank, and just ride the tank empty..
Sounds to me like you're running lean what could be because of a clogged jet.

I have had the sparkplug wire get loose and even pop off so I would check that first . Was it running hot ? Were you getting on it hard ? Had plenty of oil in the tank ? A vacuum leak in the airbox , intake or hose that came off or cracked will make it run bad .
I have read a few times on the Rocketa 2T that the gas cap has caused bugs . A dirty plug that is fouled out from oil deposits can make it run bad .
I got some bad gas in my 2T and it went from running perfect to no start . I drained the tank and the carb bowl and filled up with premium from a trusted source and it was new again .
Mine came with a 68 main jet and I went with a 75MJ and it ran great just a hair rich as you want a 2T to be since if lean they can seize up
