I had the same issue after a complete rebuild and replacement of numerous parts. One of the previous owners incorrectly wound the recoil pull starter rope in the wrong direction (when facing the internals - counterclockwise) and also put the pawl (metal thing that pops up and engages the shaft pulley wheel) in the incorrect slot (rightside hole). I read a blog of the same issue. I wrapped the cord in the correct direction i.e. clockwise and put the pawl in the correct slot i.e. the left side hole (the pawl was metal stamped with a big "L" by the way), installed the whole assembly back on my Tri-Moto 125 and it now starts on the first pull everytime; no more push starting! I hope this is the issue you are unfortunately facing and now it gets fixed...good luck.

How do you fix a mini moto?

well whats the problem with it I've got a small motorbike, (Mini Moto) which I have been experiencing problems with, The clutch is engaged when the bike is static. When I pull the rip-cord the back wheel moves with it and therefore makes it very hard to start. Even when I lift the back wheel off the ground and pull as hard as I can it still doesn't start. I've guessed that the throttle is stuck and I have tried to "Un-Stick" it but I'm getting no luck. What can I do.?

How can you emergency start a mini moto if it doesnt start electrick or pull?

If your mini moto has gears...you can use a meathod called "popping it". it works 99 out of 100 timnes... someone gets on the bike and another person pushes it until it reaches a pretty fast speed.... then once at that speed you "pop it" into first gear and it should start... if it just stops as if you hit the brakes then you werent going fast enough...i hope this helps you
