Lol... almost feels like repeating the reply from the other thread: check spark plug(s): damp with fuel? do you have good spark?

Hi mate thanks for your reply spark plug is quite new when i took it out it would say it was quiet dry to be honest and also is quiet black I don't have much knowledge about fixing bikes any advise would be a great help

Great! Sounds like fuel is coming through (maybe too much!) but are you getting a spark? Leave it out but touching the engine so you can see the spark... how's that looking?

All I remember about aprillia 50s was seized pistons due to excessive ragging.

A dude who really needs a thou bike but age restricts to a 50. ☹

Post Mortem examination tries to determine cause of death. Knowing what the body was being used for prior to expiring is a clue to what killed it.

What were you doing before the beast died/you killed it?
We're you flying down a big hill with the wind/jet-stream at your back?
Overspeed the engine and a bent valve push rod may result. Then it will be hopeless at starting. Same effect as no compression.
