My brother just got this type of bike, but it's not running. At first there was no spark, but it started working enough to get it started and warm up the bike. However, after it gets warm the bike shuts down and there's no spark again. My brother said this has happened twice. He originally thought it was the CDI unit, but it unsure what the hinderence is. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
