Cutting out problem
 

I appear to have a little problem with the bike cutting out on me. This tends to happen when revving it at standstill (Revs drop and it dies) however it has happened the odd time when braking hard and pulling the clutch in. From what I recall on the last service, i noticed one of the plugs was quite sooty while the other was ok. Can anyone shed any light/tell me what the plug conditions are indicating?

how high u revving it?

had that problem b4 if i rev the bike repeatedly over 5k in quick succession

thought it was a problem but looked in the manual and found a section that states there is some kinda sensor that will cut the engine out if u rev it like i said above while the bike is stationary to prevent engine damage

hmm now i didnt think i was revving it that high to be honest - just blipping the throttle.

Doh, it was the idle :rolleyes: i thought it was meant to be idling around 1k which it was, but apparently according the book its 1200-1400 so just knocked it up. Panic over!

Still got a bit of a sooty plug in the back cylinder :p anyone advise me on that?
