Here it is:
New-to-me 2000 PW50 ran great for several weeks. Last week it didn't want to idle.
Turned idle up a bit but then it seemed too high - rear wheel turned at idle and bogged down at about half throttle.
Turned idle back down to normal but it fouls plugs and won't start.
Clean the plug it fires right off but fouls again in less than a minute then dies and won't start again.
Is the air filter on these things significant enough to cause these types of problems? My boy was just tooling around the yard, no serious dirt.
My buddy has a couple JR50's for his girls and says their air filters don't do much and probably would not be causing this problem.
If my bike were acting like this the first thing I would check would be the air filter.
Any ideas?
