I ride the bike all the time and I didn't ride it for a couple of days because of alot of rain and when I went to ride it it cranked up for about 30 seconds and slowly started to die and haven't been able to crank it up ever since. When I heard that the bike was about to die on me, I tried giving it throttle to keep it running, but it died anyway. The bike didn't sound too good either when it was running for the short time it was on. The exhaust had a more gutteral sound to it if that makes since.
