Eton Viper 90 Problems

[dtycoon]

I brought out my kids Viper 90 for the first time this year. The battery was dead and will not take a charge, I need to buy another one. For the time being I decided to jump start the bike. It started right up but it dies as soon as we switch from Neutral to Forward or Reverse. It is like somebody is hitting the kill switch. Any ideas on what is causing this? This bike ran great last year. Thanks for the input.

You have to hold the left brake on while changeing gears. I know I just sold one and the battery has to be good or it will die. Just trying to help.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I put a new battery in and everything is good and works again. I guess the battery must need to be good to keep the bike running.

Glad I could help ya. Ride On
