Sip vape problems
Just been for a spin on Sunday –only got 2 miles away and it just died-
Bike started still first kick but just will not pick up off the clutch just stalls, had carb in bits can’t see any problem there –
Left it for 10 mins seems ok again- but did it again-
Feel like a CDI problem
Do the CDI go on these- stator reads ok—but no way of testing the CDI ( unless some one knows I way)?

Have you considered a petrol tank cap breather blockage. Or a petrol tap blockage?
