Hi, I know to some this may seem like a dumb question but I am definitely still learning and this forum has been nothing but excellent in support.
So I was riding my motorized bike for around 25-35 minutes. I am still in break in period with about 30 miles in. Suddenly the bike starting bogging down and wasn't producing power to propel me (was just popping, like right when you start it up but before the surge of power propelling you occurs. When I tried to start it again, it just bogged down even more.
Now I pulled the plug and it is black-ish and wet around, but not at the tip. This is normal for break in?
Now I also opened the gas cap and checked for gas. So this is what im wondering really - if there is no fuel in the gas tank but there is fuel in the fuel line, the bike will not run or should it run? I was thinking it needed fuel in the gas tank to create the vaccumm to pull gas? I'm not sure.
Other wise any other suggestions?
Thanks!!
