Aaron O Hi it could be a couple things a valve stuck open or damaged . The rings could be bad or broken . ( when it was running if it smoked a lot . That would be a good sign of these problems .) A piston could be damaged also .
I would check or have someone knowledgeable check the compression relief Valve. That's a good place to start and is the lesser of the other problems .. Good Luck

didnt get all of that but I think I get the gist of it.
Well, it sure sounds like you compression release valve is stuck open. Hopefully is just dislodged and sprung off, but lets talk reality. Look in that area for anything with a fresh break, or something that looks like it belongs, but is not there.
Do you know where there is another one is that you can compare it to?. I am only speculating, but I would say that you have a broken part involved with your compression release. A compression release is put on bikes so when you kick it, it will not kick back and break your leg. The compression release closes when the engine starts

First go to Wal-Mart and get some compression, it's on sale this week. If you don't have any money just take some of the compression out of your forks or your shocks. Make sure not to bother the rebound. Take your spark plug out and pour the compression down the spark plug hole. Re-install your plug and your ready to go. Make sure you don't pour to much compression in cause you might have to use race gas. Hope this helps. Thanks

Yah even nevertheless it fairly is not going to be the appropriate shape that a sparkling motorbike is.you may desire to purchase a used 125cc for variety of 1200. in case you decide on for something smaller you may get a 100cc for variety of $950 used. motorcycles fee alot of money so of you desire a sparkling motorbike you will could desire to get greater money.

Check your valve adjustment also.Your intake or exhaust valve could be tight,not allowing sufficient compression.

I think you pulled the timing chain's tensioner out.The plug that's flat with the bottom of the engine case is the oil drain.

the spring & cylinder are a part of a compression relief mechanism......it,s suposed to retard your timing [for easier start,s]........but you seem to have damaged the mechanism.....have a mechanic look at it!

I think you need to fix it.

It's time to change your piston and ring.
