UPDATE ON PROBLEM!ok so i took your guys advice, and here is what I did.
drained the tank, and put new 92 oct. gas in(even though the other gas was only about 2 weeks old!)
tested the petcock, and the fuel flows great (no clogged screen) :'(
drained the bottom bowl, and only clean fuel came out, so i removed the bowl, and to my surprise, it was squeaky clean!!!!!
i checked the jets, also very clean, and the float was too. it moved perfect! i also flushed the carb, i turned the petcock to PRI, and with the bowl off, i watched the gas easily flow through the carb!!
so I have no idea whats going on with this bike? just to be safe, i also checked the air filter, and it looked brand new!!
her bike is a 2000 savage ls650 with about 2000 miles only! she hardly ever rides it. now since its getting airflow, and fuel. could it be the spark??? even though it hardly fires up, then dies. could that be a sign of a weak spark???
