1983 Suzuki RM 250 wont stay running

I bought a 1983 Suzuki RM 250, I put a new stater on it because it wouldnt fire. so now it fires when i coast start it, but it bogs down when i give it gas and dies within 3-5 seconds... so I took the carb off and boiled it and got a bunch of stuff out of it, put it back together, coast started it again and it did the same thing. I dont know what i need to do now?

    You will need to boil the carb out, you have plugged jets somewhere.

Take the carburetor to a QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL motorcycle mechanic and have him clean and set your carburetor!!!!

SOURCE: 1982 suzuki gs650 runs, but not over 300rpm

better check for the ignition coil for proper sparking or igniting of current in the comprssion chamber, check the ignition coil spark plug wire, check the spark plug, check for proper fuel supply in the flow system to Carbs, check for Ignition timing of the bike, or still you cant solve or still worried then dont worry better take the bike to nearest aurhorised Suzuki service centre for better assistance on this problem surely the problem will be solved.

SOURCE: Oil Check 83' RM 250

There is no engine oil. You put two stroke oil in a separate tank and it gets pumped into the engine depending on how fast the engine turns.

Could be a bad coil, coil wire or module. The module converts the pulses of the stator so the coil knows when to spark. Bad coil = no spark. Bad coil wire = no spark to plug.

2008 gsx650f battery was weak so i coast started it a couple of days. the other day after riding for a while i stopped and got gas it wouldnt start with the battery so itried to coast again and that...

There must be a regulator or stator issue but I dont know the details of this bike, the generator to charge the battery, a fuse, or wire is at fault is my educated guess, if you put a good battery in it, it should run until battery gets too weak to run the coil and generate a spark. This indicates a faulty charging system, not sure where it's located on your particular machine but thats' obviously the issue from your indications.

Rm 250 wont start off kick

Don't know if it is water cooled or not, but it sounds like you may have a problem with oil or water getting into the combustion chamber and fouling the spark plugs. Kicking doesn't produce the amount of rpm that you need to fire up a weakly firing plug. I'd check the plugs condition first and replace if needed, and then figure out why its smoking.

I'm having trouble starting my 1985 rm 250 and I

It means that unburned fuel collected in the exhaust pipe then ignited when the spark plug fired due to the rotation of the crankshaft. It also means the spark plug is firing and the cylinder is getting gas... too much gas. The engine is flooding out due to much choking of the carb during kick starting.
