1982 suzuki alt 125

[ruffis]

I just bought this machine and I can't get it started.It appears to have good spark but even after trying to use ether to get it started it wont even fire over. We put in anew spark plug and gas and it still wont fire over...any suggestions????Thanks.

Do you have good compression?
Have you tried giving it a shot of either?
Have you checked the timing?

I know the Suzuki's have a temper. I own a couple of them. When they run they run good. When they break down they can be a pain to find the problem.
