>From: joneurope >Posted: Sunday, 31 August 2008 > >Hi I am having a bit of trouble with my kinroad XT50 (what a surprise!) I was cornering and decellarated to round then accelerated to exit the corner which all seemed normal, but when I tried to decellerate-well frankly it diddnt! So I ended up having to cut off the engine and get my dad to pick me up with his van (which was then written off 2 days later-how lucky!) Its not the wire(that moves freely and looks fine) but its also not anything to do with the needle moving around, that works fine, but for some reason it just doesnt decellerate when the needle is forced back in by the spring on the plug(the black plug that forces the needle down and up). Has anyone got any ideas because I really, really dont want to spend £40 + P and P for a new carb. Thanks Jon.
my son has only had his kinroad on the road for 3 day the first 2 days were fine, followed all the advise on here checked all bolts ect after each ride, today he went on a longer trip and first of all his chain came loose, we tightened it back up and off he went again only for it to loosen again, tightened it again and it went away perfect, then he just started to loose power and the bike cut out altogther, the chain was still tight, but the bike would just not start, after a lot of trying with electric start and kick start the bike finally started again, only went a couple of yards tho and cut out again, now it will not start at all, it sounds as if it is trying to start but can't seem to fire up, if anyone has any suggestions or advice on what could be causing this we would be grateful of any help thanks Sandra
Have you replaced the nasty spark plug that it comes with?? that would be my first port of call
It could one of many things, the first things I would try is try and narrow the fault down to is it an electricial or mechanical fault. Take the spark plug out and make sure you are gatting a healthy spark (ensure the plug has a good earth against the engine when checking) My son has had a Kinroad Xt 50 Sports from new and the first time he had it out in the wet it cut out just like you describe. There is a cut out switch on the side stand which I had to end up disconnecting ( shorting out ) Then the recttifier unit went and I had to buy a new one various silly electricial problems. Be very carefull when adjusting the chain, as when I also adjusted it you MUST ensure the engine mounting / securing bols are tight because if there not what will happen is the rear wheel will pull on the enginge backwards until it hits the bike frame and then you will find yourself with a hole in the gearbox casing ( like I did ). These bikes do take a lot of looking after which includes making sure the engine valve clearances are correct as this does affect the performance and the ability for the engine to start / run smothly. Good luck, hope this has helped. Cheers
the tick over on mine was dodgy at first but i just tweeked the screw next to the carburettor till it sounded ok overall great bike, you will turn heads with it
I have tried everything i can with carb and anything else i can think of coil ect... took it to a pro whos says its electrical and to get new CDI but still no change .. PLEASE HELP!
was wondering if anyone can help, my brother in law has recently got hold of a 125cc kinroad bike, 07 plate. but it doesnt work!! we are trying to find a garage / repair place local to us in south london (streatham) with no joy!!! can anyone help??? thanks
does anyone know which chain i could use to replace the chain on my son's Kinroad XT50-18Q bike, he has the original chain on the bike but it keeps stretching, someone told us that we should replace it with a compatable chain, but they didn't know which make and model was compatable with a kinroad, i would be grateful for any advise Thanks Sandra
