Hi guys i've been having probs starting my bike from cold when i kick start it since i brought it, it feels like i have lost loads of compression however it will start but takes 5-10 times lol. 2 weeks after i brought i was told by my dealer to take off the cover on the gear side and undo some screws and move some metal plate up all the way to stop it from kicking back is this right on the new stomp 140 x?? any idea's would be great on what to do to make it start better or how much it might cost to fix?cheers :( :( :(

Have you still got the stock spark plug?
EVERY bike coems with crappy plugs, why don't any of the manufacturers change this? It's a simple £3 part, easy.
Get the CR7HSA or the CR6HSA :thumbs: You can also get the iridum ones but i forgot what there caleld :thumbs:

take the stator cover off so you can get to the inner roto. on the right hand side theres a black box that has two screws holding it in place. loosen them off and pull the black box away from the roto and then tighten it up again. hope that helps you out fella. :thumbs:

Start it with 1/2 open throttle works everytime with me....and you have to do the timing adjust.
This Stomp 140cc beast with an irk revs like a 2 stroke....without the ring ding ding....whey hey!
