cateyes is not starting


i was out for a ride on it like 3 days ago. it was running fine adn my idle sucks so if i let of it will shut off. so i was making a turn and i let down on throtle to long so it turned off. the electric start ant working ether so i tried to pull start nothing. i try lik every day and nothing.
the only thing i know is when i used to pull start with throtle high it would make a deep low pitched sound.............but now when ever try to start with the throtel a little or alot it is always the same sound

if it doesn't do anything and keeps basicly the same noise and when you give it more gas it just gets deeper you need a new plug. YOu probly have no spark. once you get it to run turn the carb up all the way and just back it off untill it almost dies then turn it back just a little and it should idle.

If the bike doesnt start check for 1. Spark 2. fuel 3. air leaks

In general these bikes usually suffer from fuel delivery paroblems or airleaks. Air leaks can be identfied by spraying carb cleaner around the carb area. If The bike suddenly starts then its an air leak. Also using carb cleaner to spray into the carb helps the bike start right up too. Also check the spark. Sometimes the spark will be bad if the cyclinder is flooded with gas.
