So driving along today all was fine, stopped at the lights and went to pull away then the bike starts spluttering at high 4-5k rpm. Died completely, electric start doing nothing, kick start doing nothing. It starts when bump started but dies after like 1 minute, power starts dying at 6-7k rmp then even when dropping gears it just stops. Seems like no fuel but its got 3/4 of a tank? Any ideas Sad

Headlight bulbs have been going pretty often too. ive been planning on selling it and getting something more reliable (Not chineese) any help is appreciated.

Okay.... its running now. Engine started with a bump and when its warm it will kick start but electric start doing nothing. Its idleing just now as i just put the idle screw in a little bit. Could the idle scren have backed out from vibration and cause this?

Could be a flat battery. Put a voltmeter across the battery terminals and obtain readings with ignition off and then with the engine at 5000rpm.
