Motorized Bike Wont Start!!!!!!!!!

[Lucas Drapeau]

I've had this bike for about 5 months now and it been a nightmare, it has compression has spark and I don't know why it's not starting, it turns over but doesn't start. Help?

first quick check is whether spark plug is wet after trying to start it

When in doubt, blow it out.
Turn off the fuel, pull the plug out, and pedal it up and down the street a couple of times with no throttle to blow out any puddling fuel from the crankcase out the spark plug hole.

This is always the first step, and often all that's needed to fix a 'no start' condition.

hardly ever works if plug is dry : )

Welcome Lucas, I'm certain we can figure out what's wrong. Pictures help!

Well, since you got to pull the plug either way, it doesn't hurt to give it a curuse up the street with the plug out ;-}
