Question re power loss on recent ride

[dbertoncello]

Thanks to all for your suggestions. I'll check on those items. Standard Dimension Edge install, no obstructions to airflow.
I really appreciate this forum and for your assistance!
Thanks much!

try checking the float bowl level. the little bowl that holds gas before going into the cobustion chamber might be running out to fast because the inlet needle is stickig or the level is set to low. Kind of like a toilet not flushing out because the water tank is low

Also check for vacum leaks near the carb baseplate. Let me know how things go.

Sure hope this guy you got it from broke it in properly!

Will it start again after it just stopped ? or do you have to wait till it cools down ?
like you said 'peddle home' (cools down)

sounds like some part of the ignition circuit is heating up, reducing spark and then getting to a point that it produces no spark (hot)

Seems to die down when I need it the most, eg heading up a hill. It will bump start with the friction drive but then not respond to full throttle. By the time I get back home it starts right up and runs fine again. I'm in process of checking all the suggestions, thanks very much for you ideas. Much appreciated!
