Why is my magnetic resistance exercise bike not working?
It’s time to do some troubleshooting if you find that your magnetic resistance exercise bike is not working. As the name implies, magnetic resistance exercise bikes use a magnetic field to create resistance. The field is generated by electrical circuit or by internal batteries and pedaling action.
What to do if your bike won’t run without a choke?
Normally you would keep it on (closed) until the engine warms up and then turn it off (open). If it really won’t run without the choke being closed/on then it’s not getting enough fuel and the carbs probably need cleaning.

What causes a CARB to stick on a motorcycle?
Check ohm resistance with a multimeter. Sticking float bowl. (single carb) A carbureted bike is prone to issues if not stored properly or bad gas that lead to a dirty carb. A float tends to get stuck easily if a carb has enough build up. Blocked jets.
