So yeh earlier I tried to start my bike(Yammy R125) and it wouldn't start, I tried over and over again.
Then 5 minutes later it started, before going off 5 seconds later, so I turned it on, kept revving it and it stayed on, anyone know what could be the cause for it not starting?

It can just be so many things. Normal things to check and experiment with are usually the choke, tick-over speed, carb, fuel, battery, starter motor / coil, spark plug, oil and engine cut off switches?

Edit: and a thread like this should be in the workshop section I think Thumbs Up

ms51ves3: why does it need 500 miles? Are you teaching it how to be a piston?
