[replyingto=jkt97401]jkt97401[/replyingto]Thanks for the input!
As stated above, I don't know anything about working on the inner workings of vehicles (Yet!) but I will relay the information to my brother and he'll show me sometime this week.
Thank you all for the responses, I'll let you know what we do and what the outcomes are!

Hi all, this is my first post here! I bought a 2008 CF Moto v5 a few days ago an it has been sitting for a while. I'm completely new to the inner mechanical workings of vehicles. My brother helped me to get this puppy running, it took a new spark plug and some starter fluid but she roared to life! The bike sputtered and died the first few times but after it warmed up, it idled pretty comfortably for a few minutes without wanting to die. The issue is, the bike only wants to start with the starter fluid. Does anyone have any suggestions for my brother and I to get it running smoothly? PS. the air filter foam was pretty saturated with what appeared to be oil, this seemed odd to me so I thought I'd add it in. Is this normal?  |
