i finally got time tonight. i couldnt get her to start for nothing. i changed the gas, plug and kicked it over avbout 40 times. i then got my wife to tow me around and tried pull start it. still nothing. then when i looked down and guess what, i left the spark plug wire off. put it on and it cranked first kick. i guess the little things will get you.

I can remember more than one time trying to start a trike, kicking and kicking (or pulling). Finally getting frusterated, sitting down to take a break, and looking at the kill switch set to off DOH. The little things will get you every time.

Done that, kicked it over, bumped it nothing. Sit down and have a coke, and relize I am a dumbkid and had her off.
