Hi again,
I have a new Lexmoto adrenaline 125, today I have washed it with a jet washer and also applied a ACF50 to all parts prone to rust including the engine block witch is air cooled (Don't know if that will play a factor) and it just keeps cutting out whenever I let the RPMs drop after riding for a few seconds then wont start again for 5 mins, It runs okay with choke on with the RPMs high but once it has cut out it will not start again even with choke on for 5 mins.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem would be much appreciated, thanks

I'd start with the spark plug. Remove the suppressor cap and then using some blue roll that's been twisted into a point, poke it down the side of the plug to absorb any water that has accumulated next to it. Alternatively, remove the plug completely and dry it thoroughly. Shake out any excess water from the suppressor cap and refit. Small capacity bikes are not normally fans of high pressure jet washes
