MOPED ARMY

I had one for a bit but I never really messed with it at all. I can tell you it has a decompression valve very similar to a Sachs, I'm not sure about the key, I think the only time I ever took it out was when I loaded up the bike to deliver it, but my Yamaha motorcycle you can turn to run and take the key out, what position is the switch in, off or run?

okay lets say i disconnected those wires in the headlight assembly, it has spark, it has compression, etc.. how do i start it? just run with it? cuz there is no clutch. or is there?

yea, its great that you are getting lights.

I don't know the Kinetic, but I am up late.

You say it has compression, and you are spinning the engine to get lights. Did you turn the fuel on?

night night.

Also,Kelly.........if you still have troubles with it, go here......

That'll get you a direct audience with Sir Zipster himself, who knows TFRs pretty well, along with most other brands.

He's better known as ZIPPY. don-ohio (:^D

well alright. it has spark, checked that out. compression is good. it has gas. i have a couple of questions now though.

the headlight assembly is completely destroyed. it was held together by duct tape and zip ties. i cut them all off, and discovered that all the wires to the ignition were not connected. okay.

so basiclly, all i want is headlights and tail lights / brake lights. do i need the headlight assembly at all? i really want to take it off for now. is there a generic headlight assembly that i can get that will work? what wires do i need to keep for the headlights and breaklights to work?

okay. so after checking out the ignition thing, spark, gas, compression etc. i had someone hold down the choke lever (it wont stay down) and i kicked it over after spraying some starting fluid in the airbox. and it started for a second. after that it would die, i could start it up again using starting fluid, and even keep it running for a second by continuously spraying starting fluid in the airbox. so i guess i need to clean the carb. but how do i get to this thing? what do i do from here? help me out.

The easiest way to get to the carb is to remove the lower shock bolts and tilt the frame up. Then take off the two screws that hold the throttle assembly on and carefully slide it off. Then take off the fuel line and airbox, and remove the tiny bolt that tightens the carb onto the intake manifold. Then you should be able to twist it off.

You have to put the 'ped up on it's stand. Then remove the lower shock bolts and lower the rear wheel to the ground. Once you've done that you'll have 3-4 inches of space to work in above the carb and airbox.

Yeah it's connected to the lower part of the frame.
