I just got a 1974 yamaha dt 175 enduro and it has a hard time starting. It will start when I push start it. After it has been ridden for a while it starts up on the first kick. Also, when riding it it feels like there's some power missing. I've read that this bike's top speed is about 70 mph. But i can hardly get it over 35. I've looked through the motor a little bit, the reeds look fine, and the carburetor looks pretty clean. any ideas?!
I do put the choke on when i try to start it
