my 50cc Motofino motorscooter hesitates after closing throttle and reopening after a minute or two only. Seems an obvious carb problem, but no help from distributpor except replace the entire carb. Are there other things i could check first?

thanks, jaime

My bike was stolen 3/17/07, it was recovered last Wednesday. It was theft ring in northern Georgia. The theives had begun to strip my bike. The engine, frame, wheels are all intact. The top of the bike, the tank, seat, fairings had been removed but are recovered. The battery is gone the ignition is gone and the wheel lock broken. There are many wires that are unattached and just hanging. The plug wires and coils appear to be intact. It is more of lights, and there is no computer, if there was one. I need to find out what is missing and what I need to do to approach this rebuild project. I would appreciate any info that could get me started. Thanks.

I have a 1992 Honda 250 xr dirtbike. I have recently crashed it and there was some damage done to the exhaust that i had to weld. the compression feels very low when i try and kick start it and it is very hard to get it started unless i push start it. there is no more cracks in the exhaust pipe, but it is noticeably louder and has much less power than it did before i crashed. what can i do for better performance?

Yes, I have been in contact with the company. All efforts have been useless. I live in Suffolk County, Long Island, New York and was wondering if anyone knows of a good scooter mechanic in my area. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. I thank you all in advance for your assistance.

I was having my Harley dyno'd the other day after doing some upgrades (I'm up over 72 hp now!) and my buddy decided to stick his Sportster on the dyno. The bike is a completely stock 2001 with 3,200 miles on it, and runs like it always has. When it was put on the dyno, it came out at only 32 horsepower. I had thought the stock hp ln these was about 45, but the speed shop owner insisted that although the 45 hp # is what you see listed all the time, in reality the Sportster always tests in the 30s. Does this sound right or do he need to go get it tested on a different dyno?

For a 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600.

This bike has just over 7000 miles on it, and was bought about a week ago with a 2 year warranty on it from a reputed motorcycle dealer.

Basically, I got it home, unloaded it off my truck correctly, and went to start it and take it around for a short ride. The battery was dead. I let a dead battery slide, and figured that somewhere along the line of taking it home, something discharged the battery. I charged it myself with a battery charger, and had it running for a day. Now, it is making a lot of smoke when it runs, and refuses to go into gear. (It shifts, but just stalls going into first, with the clutch in.) Are these symptoms of a greater problem? Is there something I'm missing? I'm pretty good with motorcycles. It IS under a 2 year warranty, but if theres something I'm doing wrong now, I don't want to hitch it back up on my truck and take it to them only to have them tell me I was forgetting to do something on it.

One night during some heavy stop and go traffic I smelled coolant really strong. I stopped to see if my 94 YZF750R was leaking but no liquid ever hit the floor. I just assumed it was another passing vehicle. Weeks later while messing around with my battery I noticed my coolant tank was empty. I filled it with water and rode it about one mile before it was bone dry again. Still no liquid on the ground no dripping. My oil is not milky or bubbly. I filled it up one last time and now the water stays in. I am scared to ride it now becasue if it's a blown gasket or head I don't want to sieze it.
