Okay, so.... My bike was running fine, and then for three or four days straight, it would bog down randomly and slow to like 15mph or so (hard to tell, no speedo), and would randomly pick back up again. The problem got progressively worse, and last week I was riding it and it randomly died while I was riding it... I couldn't get it to start afterwards, no matter what. I checked, and I have no shorts anywhere. It did this once before, but I think the main thing was that I ran it out of gas on accident, and once the bowl in the carb filled, it ran that time.
The little nib inside the stock plug wire cap fell out like two weeks ago while riding, and I jury rigged it for like 4 miles of riding to keep it running till I could get it home, then I cut the plug lead off of a lawnmower and spliced it into my existing one. Could this have anything to do with it?
I'm getting fuel, so I'm leaning towards electrical.
