Hi,

I just got a mini moto but when i start it and rev the engine for a bit it doesn't do anything, it just revs for a bit and then cuts out. I've tried it down a hill and still no power at all. Theres not much else i can tell you as this is my first mini moto and i don't know much about bikes.

Heres a picture of the bike;

i may be way off here but when we got ours, filled it up and started it, it kinda revved but died out, looked under the tank and the fuel pipe was allowing alot of petrol through.... check the pipe isnt creased, blocked etc.

as soon as the bike is started you need to turn the choke off, also get a new fuel filter from a motorcycle shop as the standard one is naf, my new one is see through with a gauze filter instead of a crap paper one and finally some motorbike shop will sell a better plug than the crap chinese on i looked on ebay for them both and saved six pounds going to my local bike parts shop and bot the proper items not a car fuel filter like the ones on ebay hop this helps a bit
