first off i called fast by gast, the guy i talked to said that they do not do service, they are only a machine shop.

secondly i am working on finding a manual. they are a little hard to find. on a good week there is one on ebay. basically everything needs to be tuned in. the most urgent would be the carbs and the ignition.

i think i am just going to take the bike in for a motorcycle inspection and see what they say needs to be fixed. when i start the bike it has a very rough idle then dies after a minute i think it is a combination of off timing and a fuel problem.

your carbs are most likley not synced, and possebly jetted wrong, its a 2 stroke there really isnt timing, is the motor good? points clean? pistions in the right way? i will try to research the bike later i have to work now, where are you located?

i would pretty much guarantee that the carbs need to be rebuilt. the motor runs a little then dies … then it must be a fuel problem. points look decent i am assuming the pistons are in the right way, i haven’t taken the motor apart. i am located in north collins.
