i recently took my 50 out of storage and i am having a little trouble getting it riding right. It starts easy enough and sometimes it will idle, but it seems to have lost most its power and the revs or about a quarter of what they use to be. when i pop it in gear its rolls like a turtle walking. (very slow) Any input or tips are greatly appreciated!

Was there gas in the carb while it was stored? Did you drain the gas before storage?
Bad gas and a gummed up carb will make the bike run poorly. Clean the carb/jets, drain any old gas out of the tank, and fill with some fresh stuff.

Make sure nothing has made a home in your exhaust pipe, like a bird or mouse. I've heard of that happening before.
