try puting a bit (about 1 tsp.) of premix down the cylander put the plug back in and give it a kick, if it fires (or even starts foor a second or two) look for fuel delivery problem/s.

Joeyc1213 - Welcome to Iboats. <br /><br />If it seems "loose", you probably want to check compression.

Try adjusting the carb screw. Idle screw and fule screws. Turn it clockwise lightly till it seats then back off about 1 turn, try to start it. If it does cool if not try 1/4 more out and try again.<br />Make sure you choke it. Also on the carb might be a clear bulb you pust that to get it primed like a lawn mower.<br /><br />Good luck. We sold our (the wifes) little motorcycle was to slow. We relly regret selling the YSR50 was an awsome bike could do 55 mph and was totally street legal. I even had a pipe installed and a taller sprocket to go faster!

Yes, I would start with 1 1/2 turns out and go from there.
