Ive had my 80cc for a while probably put 100 miles on it ran great but let it sit for about 3 months and went to start it and it barely turns the motor once when i disengage the clutch take spark plug out it turns fine with no compression i had spark but put plug back in and it doesnt want to fire almost seems like its not being turned fast enough for it to start any ideas
 
i get a spark when i check it but it seems like when i disengage the clutch i have to still pedal like 3 more times before it will build enough compression to turn over once im baffled it feels as im being bogged down cause when it does turn the compression is kinda weak it feels
 
lose clutch? maybe the cable adjustment is too tight? Can check compression with the plug out, put your thumb on the hole and just roll the bike forward. Should blow your thumb off forcefully right away.
