It's a nice bike.. Compression on mine is 150 and runs perfectly. Just recently it doesn't like to hold onto gasoline.. When the petcock is turned on or reserve it just pours out gas from the carb bowl clear breather tube.. Not sure what that is since I haven't looked at it.
With all that said, we've beaten the hell out of this thing (it's an 04) and it just keeps going, I've had to bend shit back in place for it to work (like the shifter) But I try to keep up with the oil at least. Got it for more of a see if I like dirt bike riding. got it for 1k.

That's the same problem this one was having. Let me know if you figure it out.

That's what I was thinking. I had actually looked at it but not tried to fix yet. Im assuming just take the bowl off and clean it out with some carb cleaner?

Worse case scenario, you may also need to replace the float needle (cheap) because sometimes the little rubber tip wears out, and it won't seal properly. JC
