Hi All
My bike is running a bit lumpy. On idle you can hear its uneven and it sounds like one of the cylinders is kicking in and out. The bike has more vibes than you expect and even numbs your fingers. However when you open up the throttle it pulls well enough.
So I tried running it and then pulled off the HT caps one by one. If I pull off the rear it drops down slightly but not much. If I pull the front one off the bike cuts out.
Its at its best when you first ride it with the choke out.
So what do you reckon is the cause?
