Title: Oil draining / bogging down
Post by Jokerworld on 04/23/19 at 11:27:09

Hello yall,

Just of couple of things,

1. I have oil coming from the hose on the right side of the crankcase hole to the air box.

2. I can get the bike up to 60mph then it will bog down to 30mph after that it will not go past 50mph.

Any suggestions on how to fix this would be great.

For #2. I had a similar issue where my diagram/sled would stick while riding. It would happen occasionally. I replaced the assembly and it's been fine.

I am new to the bike world, is the diaphragm the carburetor?

Check your oil level....your crankcase may be overly full - if the petcock leaks it can run fuel into the crankcase, and the extra fuel/oil limits rpm and blow fuel out the breather hose.

The diaphragm is in the petcock. You should test it:

WHAT DAVE SAID!!!! Don't run the bike again until you check the oil level and open the oil fill cap and check for gas fumes.

Sorry for the late reply.

I did smell the oil cap and tank it does smell like gas fumes.

What can I do to fix this.

Empty the tank
Dump oil
Let it vent
Put a Raptor Petcock on
Don't recommend knockoffs

And change the oil filter.
