Hi, I have a similar problem. I have a 2002 blast and its turning over and I even had it running several times. But it has real problems with cold starting. To the point when i drain the battery trying to start it. I have changed the plug today and I am going to attempt to push start it and see if I can get it started. But why is it having these problems? The bike has only 850 miles. It has new gas in it and I even cleaned out the carbs. Do the automatic chokes go bad in these bikes?

please help,,,, i am pulling my hair out

You might get the best responses over in the Thumper section - Blast-specific.

There is most likely a problem with the auto choke/enrichener circuit.

How did you clean out the carb?
