2020 Brozz 250 No Start

mattygritt · 04-16-2023, 08:55 PM

So a couple of nights ago I took my Brozz out for a night ride after upgrading to an H4 LED bulb. The bike rode great. Rode it for about a half hour. The following night I went to go start the bike and I mistakenly put the key in the ignition without disabling the alarm. The alarm went off, I "unlocked" the bike with the fob.

After this though, the bike had trouble starting. Is there something that the alarm can do that can cause issues for restarting the bike?

After a few minutes I was finally able to get the bike started by kick starting it. I took it out and about 2 minutes down my driveway the bike died. Sounded like it was starving for fuel. I have almost a full tank of gas.

Tried starting it back up; couldn't get it to start. After a few minutes, I was able to get it started using the electric starter (not kick starting it). I was able to ride it for about another 2 minutes before it died.

Tonight I did some troubleshooting. I disconnected the alarm system entirely using the old thread on here. Still no start. Removed spark plug and confirmed that I am getting spark. I removed the fuel line coming off of the petcock and confirmed that I am getting fuel from the petcock. Put a multimeter on my battery and I do have a good charge on the battery.

Anything I should look at? My next guess is to pull the carb off and take a look inside. I'm wondering if it's gummed up? If anyone has any advice, I would appreciate it! Thanks.

Spray a little gas in the carb,if it starts its in the carburetor.

You may have so trash in the jets. Take of the carb and give it a good cleaning. I've found metal shavings in a brand new sealed carb.

Thanks for the replies. Still at a standstill on this. Tried spraying starting fluid in the carb and a little bit of gas. Still did not start.

Took the carb off and removed the bowl; no debris or gunk in there. Took the needles and jets out and examined them. Everything was clean and looking perfect. Confirmed that I do have spark. I do have compression, although I have not hooked up a compression gauge. Any idea of what could have happened?

Could the LED headlight conversion caused something to fail? Or is there something that maybe the alarm screwed up? In the owners manual it says that if the alarm goes off it will "lock the engine." I did disengage the alarm; but all my problems started that night the alarm went off.
