My new TbR 7 will not start
Well I have everything ready to go on the bike but cannot get it to start. The battery has a full charge, the light turns on. You hit the starter and it tries to start but it will not. It sounds like it is not getting any gas or the like. I did do a oil change and put new oil in. Any ideas? Spark plug looks good. The spacing looks good. I am at a lost.

I don't know much about the Tbr, does it have a kickstand switch? If so pull the kickstand up and try it again.

Hrm, is the valve lash set? It really should start even if it's off but it starting can be much harder if the valves are tight. Just running down the checklist here, These engine are super basic if you've got spark and fuel there isn't much else.

This
I would either pull the plug or use a spare plug , stick the plug into the cap and rest it against the head to ground it. Crank the engine to see if it sparks, if a good strong spark occurs then check the fuel. Open the drain screw on the carb and see if it runs gas out of the drain hose, that way you know fuel is making it to the bowl.

I think the TBR7 has a resistor on the cap. Make sure the plug isn't a resistor plug. A couple of members had the same issue. You should use a non resistor plug with a resistor cap.
