its a friends bike and has been laying up for six months,sparks great fresh petrol, cleaned carb out,check all wires, good compression still no go!!! i was told it just cut out and was just put in garage till now..

there are lots of reasons it may not start,you need to tell me a few more things though.did it cut out while you were riding it and not start after that?or did it run ok and then you parked it up an then it wouldnt go again?or did you leave it standing for a period of time and then it wouldnt go?is there good resistance to the kickstart lever if you kick it over ?
