Hey everyone not sure if this is right section... i have a yamaha xt125 and just lately i've been having a few probs with my bike. Havnt been running it much which couled be the reason but im not sure. When i start the bike with the choke on it will run for a minute or so it will cut out and keep cutting out after that after a few seconds eveytime i start it again unless i keep revving it? any ideas why?

thanks

that was my thought, probably had same fuel in for more than 3 months. Must have been run at least once a month though sometimes more.

thanks

Does the fuel tap have a 'PRIME' position, if so try that for a while.
