That was a great little bike overall, but the carb was always a total pita...never really idled as smooth as it should have. I was constantly trying to tweak it.

But it served us well, with a set of chains it would go anywhere and it never left the daughter stranded.

One nice thing about some of these 2WDs is that if you get stuck, you can pick up the back end and get it on solid ground. I've never been stuck where I couldn't get unstuck, nor has the previous owner, a friend of mine.
