So I fixed my issue from yesterday but as I'm on my way to work this morning I was cruising down a hill at about 40mph and the scoot just died. I would give it throttle and nothing. Now it won't start and I'm stranded.. Grrrrr

What was your "issue" from yesterday? Could be related.

Could be electrical. I would check if everything is well plugged in. ( sparkplug wire, coil, CDI, plug coming from the ignition...)

We can't see your video..as katastroff says...it's private... So we won't be able to listen for a compression loss..timing being off..a bent or leaking valve etc..  |

It doesnt seem to want to turn freely, so i think you got compression. If you have a spare sparkplug, use it to check if you got spark.
Pull off the plug boot from the plug, insert your spare in it and put the tip of the plug on the metal part of the valve cover. Try to start it and watch the plug for spark.

It tries to start..so you must have spark and possibly borderline compression. Check your valve lash and also don't rule out a hung or bent valve. Furthermore..I would pull the carb vac line off and the carb fill line off.. Suck on the vac line and see if fuel comes out from the carb fill line.. I would also do a compression check..just in case ya blew the piston rings.. Just my 2 cents..  Glenn |

Compression is 153 so that's good

Just pulled the spark plug off and the tip was all burned and black and it definitely was not like that yesterday
