run a compression check and you may have fouled the plug. overfilling the oil is not a good idea.

almost everyone gets a bad plug out of the box once in a while. just because a part is new doesn't mean it's good.

inspect the upper forks and the triple trees where they attach to make sure nothing got bent. that big nut holds the triple tree to the steering head and there are bearings under there.

go to our library and look at a generic diagram then trace the wire from where it starts to where it goes. that looks like something that will pop the fuse.

try adjusting the valves. this may increase compression.

you may have to disable the kill switch on the bike and wire it into the alarm system. turning the key off should kill the engine. using the diagram you supplied, the wire i don't understand is labeled antenna (engine cut off). it also looks like the unit's pink wire goes to the key switch in stead of the wh/bk wire, but I could be wrong.

I'm not familiar with this but hey, I'll give it a shot. sounds like unit is back feeding into the turn signal relay. have you tried to hook it up to the neg side of the led's?

a good starting point for the air/fuel screw is 2 1/2 turns out from lightly seated. iirc, turning it out more will allow more air than fuel making it run lean but I've been wrong before.

doesn't have to be bike specific but it should be for your size engine, ( 50, 150, etc.)

you shouldn't have to mess with the air/fuel screw once it's set. the gas cap may not be venting and you're starving for fuel. loosen the cap and see if the problem repeats.

bypass the petcock with an external fuel source, (gas can)and gravity feed it with a hose to the top of the fuel filter or directly to the carb. this should let you know if the petcock is bad or not. remember to block the vacuum source.
