what's the history on it? brand new out of box and won't run? run for 1 month, 1 day, 1 year? What's the engine doing when you try and start it? Will it start at all? sputter? start then die right away?
pics or a video will help.

start with the basics....
check for spark. pull the spark plug, put the plug boot back on the spark plug and pull the pull-start. watch the electrode at the end of the plug closely to make sure you see a tiny blue spark.

also check that fuel is actually entering your carb. not sure what kind of fuel tank system you're running? could be a clogged line, debris in the inline fuel filter (if you run one). Are your fuel lines transparent to where you can see the fuel flow all the way down to the carb inlet?

 

[minibikeman1180]

no there not see through

 

[mmisterbungl]

no there not see through

pull the line off where it slips on to the carb inlet and make sure it's flowing at least to that point

Were ya running wide open?
Did it just quit?
Did it sputter then quit?

i was riding about full throttle but since it wasnt running right due to carb problems as i said before it seemed like 1/4 throttle and then i just was about to go home and it just died and the motor spinned until it died and i tried moving the throttle so it wouldent die but it wouldn't stay on then it died and it has fuel the carb is clean and it has spark and it just dosn't want to start and i tried starting fluid i looked in the fuel on/off bowl the carb bowl and i cleaned the jets but nothing will work i am stuck and am dying to ride i hope this helps you guys
