[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1368736, member: 18302"] My first guess is the valves are set too tight. Basically, as the motor gets hot, the clearances disappear and the valves stay open a little. This will kill your power and make it impossible to start. With wear, the valves tend to get tighter over time as they recess into the head. If the valves are set loose enough, my next guess would be the stator is going bad. This can often be heat sensitve and very hard to diagnose. [/QUOTE]
