Hi guys. I've bought a Honda NC50 Express and it hadn't been run for a year, but it was stored. Fresh petrol was put in, and it ran fine. But after I rode off with it, I hit about 30MPH and lost all power, it was just bogging out. I started it and it didnt do it for a while, as I rode it round a field for a while. But again I hit about 30MPH and it died. So I took it home. Now I can ride it for about 1 min. and it will just do the same. I dont know why, because at one point I ws able to leave it for a few minuites and ride it again. But now I cant even do that. After it dies it wont start unless I cover the airbox, so I'm guessing theres a air leak somewhere. I've fiddled with the air mixture screw, but it hasn't made no difference. I sprayed WD-40 over the intake manifold to see if any bubbles came up, but nothing happened. I've been told its the sparkplug, and I replaced it but it hasn't made any difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I haven't even been able to ride it properly at all. I've had it for a few weeks, but its only now I really want to get it sorted. I just hope its something simple as I'm 16 and dont have much money.
Thanks in advance
Nick
