Hi everyone,
I was a member on the "other rappy site" but this one rocks. And I am glad we still have a VIP section. But anyways my rappy has been sitting for 6-8 months, i know i should have been riding but my little bros bike is down and in need of a major rebuild so i have been helpin him when i had time. I did not put in any fuel stabilizer or drain the tank. When i go to start the bike, I push the start button but nothing happens, I have to turn the key off and on, then turn the switch back to off/start then it works fine. to make matters worse it was sitting in my back yard for about 3 weeks while we remodeled our shop for more room. Today it fired right up but would cut off when it was idling. I rode it for about 10 mintues but it never wanted to stay running unless i was in the gas. When i wnet to the shop and unloaded it, it wouldnt even start. Finally the battery went bad till i got a buzzing sound from the starter. I guess that meant i was out of juice in the battery. I know how to drain the gas in the tank, but what about the thorttle body. I plan on new oil, filter, and spark plug to start. What gives?
