just finished my 185s an hour or two ago... and was dissapointed after it wouldn't start... gas is getting into it, the plug is fine, ive pulled off the pulse system and put it back together probably 3 times now, Ive checked the wiring, coil and wire ... its got tons of compression, and when i turn it over i can hear a sucking noise coming through the air box so i don't think there's a vacuum leak. i played with the choke and tried un flooding by holding the gas in and turning it over. im really stumped on this , ive seen hondas run with a hole through the engine before, i cant think of any reason mine wont

hmmm i checked the timing when i redid the head cover gasket and it was good... i mean its possible... i might try push starting it tomorrow... how does one do that anyways ? hold the shifter up so the clutch is engaged? its back together now so i could prob get 500 bucks for it maybe even 600 if i sold it and just buy another trike that runs... how would i check if it was 180 off ?

manuals are listed in the
'world class help' section for free.

and they have tons of info

so? you say it has spark and fuel and compression?
may be valve timing off 180*

Did you have it all apart?
