HI all, I ride Honda Goldwings and I realize this is not the site for goldwings but here is the situation, I have a friend that recently acquired a scooter with problems. He says it is a Daytona Style Chua Scooter. First of all I don't know if this is a Chinese scooter or what. It is a 2005 and he tells me it is a 150cc engine approx 4500 mi. on the clock. I don't know who makes it or where.
The problem is it won't start. I have done fairly extensive work on my goldwings so I volunteered to help him get it running. The story is another friend of his put a new carb on this bike and now it won't start. It won't even try to fire.
Here is what I have done so far:
put in a new plug and checked for fire and I do have fire
added a starter switch, when I got it there were just two bare red wires and he said to just touch the two wires together to initialize the starter
I have gone as far as removing  the plug and put a little bit of gas directly into the cylinder and it still won't even act like it wants to fire.
I read on this forum to remove the vacuum hose on the intake, put a little gas in and it should run for a short period or at least try to run. I did that and still won't even try to fire.
So I am stuck here and don't know what to do next.

Thanking you all in advance and I know there must be a huge knowledge base here. So any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Also can someone here tell me more about actually what this scooter is and who the manufacturer is.

Thanks
Dell
