Haven't updated in awhile. I got the engine replaced in my bike because the mechanics I used said there was zero compression on engine. they figure something got in the engine when I was mud boggin in the winter. The Air filter was filled with mud water and gunk.

The engine cost only $500 and labor was only $400. I had to travel 200 miles away to find a mechanic that would work on a China bike. And funny enough these mechanics where custom chopper dudes. Go figure. They did an excellent job and my bike works great. Started up after being in storage for 6 months. I took it out in rough mountains in Northern California and it did great. Lost my rear disc brake...but that on another post.

I guess the lesson is clean your bike well after rainy mud riding. And dont let water and mud get in your air cleaner area.

Dude, let me start by saying that this thread had me on the edge of my seat like a good book lol. Unfortunately for you, you got BOHICA'd for a grand and a shit load of time. I really learned a lot about diagnosing carb issues though. Also being new on this forum, i got to see how awesome a lot of these guys are offering their time to help. I look forward to interacting with everyone on here soon.
