I rode my pocket bike 3 times, and it worked and started perfectly.The next day i started it, it worked for approximetly 4 seconds and it stopped. this happened all the times ive tried. The clutch was on the "up" position and it starts and doesn't turn off, but then it won't accelarate on that clutch position. i tried the clutch "down", and that's when it accelrates and turns off automatically after 3-5 seconds. the bike was on "ON" but still didnt work. the oil tank is filled up too. the gas and oil i used were regular car oil filled up to the mixing bottle and a little bit of GTX gas. Can you guys tell me what im doing wrong or what is going on that's wrong. Thanks a lot.

Any advice? I was told that cruisers are pretty good for long rides. I'm over 40 and my children are old enough for me to have a life.

Every so often I hear people on bikes going by making lots of noise with their engines. It's obvious they're disturbing people, yet they do it anyway. I'd like to know what the enjoyment is, especially from those of you who own bikes and rev your engines up and down streets.

Where i live are alot of fields so i like a good top speed but i also do a little bit of trail riding and going through mud. My buddies and i also go riding at quarries often so i would need something that could do all of that. I dont knwo if i should get a sport or utility and i am not sure what would be the best.

Is it better to lock a motorbike to a pole with the front or rear wheel?

Most motorbikes I see have the front wheel locked. I thought it would be better to lock the back wheel because it is more difficult to remove than the front wheel if someone was trying to steal the bike.

I have painted my motorcycle gas tank twice and it keeps cracking. What am I doing wrong? I do it in 65 plus degrees, get it to the bare metal, sand and prime it, do thin coats, and do a top coat but it still cracks.
Please help.

I am planning on buying my first brand new bike and want to get a cruiser. I've previously had a 83 Suzuki GS550E and a 92 GS500E. I've been riding for a few years now and am a 5'6" female.

I really like the balance of the Boulevards but the Vulcan wasn't bad either. Anyone know of a reason to spend the extra money for a Vulcan?

Also I'm a little concerned (and the salesman really played into this) that I might outgrow a C50. Does anyone have any experience with the power difference between the 50 and the 90?

Hi I took the MSF and I just got a Ninja 250 and it seems like I can only go up to about 3000-4000 rpm in first gear before it just revs and it doesnt seem like I am picking up speed from the increase engine speed and it is time to shift to 2nd gear already at that rpm.

The bikes in MSF class werent like that, why do I have to shift so soon to 2nd gear at 3000-4000 rpm? Seems like I am not even out of an intersection yet and i am still turning in a 90 degree turn and I already have to shift to second gear, maybe 7-10mph.

Thanks
