new member new bike
arite guys newbie to this site
ive just recently brought the 2011 wbp 140
awsome bike
ive had it running and had a quick spin round the fields the other day it ran perfect
i tryed to start it earlier but it was struggling, it started but it was spitting when i was giving it revs, but it just went dead. is this because its a new engine and needs too be run for a while ????
thanks jak

Re: new member new bike
sounds like it either needs the carb setting up also if it was out of a box and not pdi'd by a shop i was advise to chech the valve clearances. like charlie said run it dont rag it i was advised to dump that factory oil as its normally total crap oil get some putoline or castrol in there
