[QUOTE="morbidphil0622, post: 1116120, member: 70724"] I have a 1993 rm 125 that I have had for about 6 months. When I first bought the bike it would start on the first kick every time, I mean every time.. Well my buddy and I were out of gas and really really wanted to go riding so we siphoned some gas from a buddys quad and mixed it up to ride on. as soon as we both started up our bikes the carbs on both clogged. We cleaned the heck out of both carbs and they ran fine for the rest of the day. now all of the sudden my bike has become impossible to start. I have pulled the carbs and cleaned them about 10 times now, I checked the float levels today and everything checks out. I have cleaned the power valve and inspected the reeds. the only thing questionable was my reeds because I dont know how old they are but they sit flush with the reed body. I am lost and really dont know what to do. The bike has spark and the stator appears to be correct. I would say that the compression could be bad but I am able to bump start it, and when I do it runs better than it has ever ran before. I assume that is beacuse ov everything I have cleaned. I have tried hotter plugs and different gas/oil ratios but nothing seems to work, it just kicks and kicks and if you kick it a few times with no throttle at all it will sometimes backfire a bit. Sorry to make this post so long but I am trying to give all the info that I can give. If you have had this problem or can think of anything else that I can try please respond to this. Like I said the bike will bump start but will not kick, not even after it is warmed up... Thank you, Jason [/QUOTE]
