POSSIBLY (if present - happened to me on a different bike) a mechanical link between choke and throttle got stiff so 'choke' (the 'a bit more throttle' component) kept the revs up.

DISCONNECT NEGATIVE CABLE FROM BATTERY IF BIKE STILL RUNS ALTERNATOR IS ON.

75 or 80 ft.lbs. i think

Buy a manual, all the information you require to service your bike is in there. But as long as you buy the plugs recommended in the manual they will be close enough to the right spec for your bike.

is choke sticking

Check that your air filter is fitted properly and then check the spark plugs, you may have got a poor set of plugs-they sometimes fail when under stress ie high revs.

Check the bulb.

Pull the wire from the horn and check for voltage when you press the horn button. If you have voltage 12vdc. the horn is bad. Check to be sure there is a good ground to the frame and in the wiring. If you have two wires, one is a ground, one is hot from the button when pressed.

Hi, thats a nice easy one, first support your bike on a stand so the wheel is clear of the ground, remove the locking pin from the rear axle nut if fitted, to make life easyer undo the two bolts securing the caliper to the bracket and lift the caliper clear of the disc, next put a piece of wood or similar to support the rear wheel when you remove the spindle, the spindles on these bikes can become seized and difficult to remove (wor

Remove the rear seat the fuse box should be the black box there

Don't take it apart then!C'mon, on a serious note, your not telling us what you are trying to put back together.

When you say it does nothing....no lights work at all...or you just can't crank starter?
Are you sure new battery is charged and the Main fuse is okay..should be close to battery.
No chance of rodent damage to wiring while sitting?

Hi there David.Well providing that you have now got the correct amount of oil in the engine and it is running fine and not leaking you shoul have no no further issues. The question whether or not to use synthetic oil is always a difficult one.If the manufacturer suggests it as an alternative well thats fine,you could use it.If however the manufacturer does not suggest the use of then it is not advisable to use that oil. The break in process on most modern motorcycles is not a big deal and normally is carried out in the first 1000 kms and involves not reving the engine to high rpm for prolonged periods or staying at the same rpm for extended periods. This probably is not a major issue to worry about and would really only be evident if the engine uses excessive oil.

The screw I think you are adjusting is the idle mixture screw, and will only make a differnce at idle
You set at the smoothest idle

If power in 1 and 2 is the problem, then there is something else, make sure the carb is clean, the exhaust is not blocked , the air filter is clean and relatively new,valve clearances? are ok, new spark plug , new oil, and then start looking at the jetting.
up to 1\4 throttle -pilot jet
around mid range -needle position
top end -main jet.
try riding with and without choke to get some idea, if it runs better with some choke then it is lean

If you have a helper, you can have them apply the brake and maintain the fluid level while you bleed the old fluid off. If you don't have help, you can use a hand vacuum pump at the bleeder to draw out the old fluid while ensuring the fluid resivoir is kept full untill you see the new fluid coming through.

Follow the red (Positive) battery cable out away from the battery, you will find the main starter relay and with this relay is a main fuse under a plastic cover to the side. Check this fuse, if this fuse is ok. You need to check your wiring to/from the key switch. You can check the battery connection with a short wire and jump across the starter relay. Jump across the two large post of the relay. If the battery is hooked up and hot, the starter will turn. if all this is ok, you have a main harness problem. Hope this helps Fix Ya up.

sounds like it might be a Chinese made bike.you might try(ZHEJIANG CHAOZHONG MOTORS)good luck i had a hard time finding parts for mine.
