yea it was off because it was just sitting that was two days ago when it wasnt running. And it was the battery. I got an interstate plug and play batter (allready completely charged) I put it in, tried to start it didnt go, pop started it. Runs great! idles fine, no back fire or flames, etc. now it starts fine every time i started it today i rode about 50 miles overall. and hopefully it starts good in the morning with some choke.

So i basically stole this bike i traded my ninja 250 in running condition for this bike that didnt run right, ive had it for two days and it runs awesome now that i worked on it myself, cost me under 400 dollars to get it running again, (tires, oil/filter, battery, tire installation)
The guy who i traded with has no idea that the bike is running fine now, and he isnt even going to ride the 250 he said.

Thanks ALOT for the help guys i appreciate it.

That's the BEST part about knowing how to fix bikes. You can buy broken ones for next to nothing, and fix them for next to nothing.

Yea except I didnt give the guy any money just my 99 ninja 250 which wasnt worth that much at all. And i figured since the bike was running, roughly, and he was driving it without a problem a year ago, with some work i could fix it. I was a little skeptical because there could have been a big problem with it and I would have to bring it to a shop, but turns out there wasnt any major problems and now it works. but now i have to buy a new windshield since i broke it last night kinda pissed about that but w.e
