Went riding yesterday and noticed sometimes it would take a few button presses to get it started. Afterwards it runs great.

I started it up cold with choke, turned choke off let it idle. Let it sit for a minute or 2 to warm up, clicked into 1st and it stalled. So after it stalled i hit the button and it would not fire. Took roughly 4-5 tries before it fired. Ran fine after.

Went to truck after a few laps and it cooled off, went to start it again, fired up and stalled, same thing happened as when i started riding. Even after it had been ran for a while.

Just out a new battery (wps) in it a few months ago. What could be my issue? Was thinking maybe spark plug? Bike has 60hrs all stock. I woods ride it so im not on the limiter ever really.

Check your fuel pump fuel line in the tank. That year had issues with the fuel line in the tank crimping and slowing fuel flow. A new shorter fuel line is available.

Sounds like a clutch issue if its dying when you put it in gear and hard to restart (if in gear). Keep the revs up before clicking it in and see if it helps
