First off i want to start off by say hello, im new to the site and to pocket bikes. I'm not new to motorcycle as i drag race them... BUT!!
I have just purchased brand new Grand Prix Mx3 from USA PocketBike.com, for my daughter (she sees me drag race and wants to do the same).. well i went to start it and it took a few pulls (to be expected) and it started. she rode it for abt 15 minutes and then shut off. ther was a thunderstorm coming.. lol..
So today i go out there to start it and wha la....
Problem #1.... The pull cord will not retract!!! ***!! its brand NEW....
Problem #2... Its leaking gas from up top somewhere, possibly the fuel line... but i can't tell yet.
Problem #3.... it doesn't have an idle screw!! WTH...
Now since this is my first time owning one of these, im not completely sure if this is common. (my bikes i turn the key and boom it starts...lol).. but i know it should come with a idle screw shouldn't it... not some glob of glue... or is this common.. also a leaky gas tank? i mean it ain't like i can just take it back to suzuki and say ***.. this place is in Cali...
So my question are...
Is this common among these bike?
I'm not tryin to supe it up .. i just want her to beable to learn how to ride for the few weeks i have her here... please is this something i can fix... just so i can get her back to riding..
Thank you for all ur help now and as it seems in the future..!
