It's an XS360 and i got it running great yesterday. I could kick it once and it would start right up and run great.
Got home today, kicked it twice maybe and it started right up and ran great. Let it idle a while, turned it off and
put my headlight back in so i could go ride it afterwards. My bad luck friend came over and then after that it wouldn't
start whatsoever. I did all of the same things I had done the past times i had started it. Sprayed a little carb cleaner in
the carbs and it starts and instantly dies.
Thought it might be flooded so i drained the bowls, refilled them and still nothing. The fact that it starts with the carb
cleaner but won't stay running makes me think it's a lean issue but how is that happening? Brand new petcock, fuel lines,
new gas, etc. Not to mention, it ran yesterday like a champ! Now nothing...So what do i do? Ban my friend from ever being
around the bike with his bad luck?
