Re: My curvey has broke itself! (running on one after a lay-up.)
I think it just might be the fuel! I just drained the tank and this is what came out! I've drained the fuel bowls and am off to get some fresh fuel.

 If you look at the picture the misty white right hand side is the water laying at the bottom of the bucket (the bucket is tipped at an angle to show this).

Finally got to give it a run last night. Damn thing still didn't want to start without a lot of choke! Finally got moving and cleared it out. Needs a full tank of fresh fuel though despite adding meths to try and dissipate any residual water. All this because of one blocked tank drain!

Re: My curvey has broke itself! (running on one after a lay-up.)
I've just experienced the same problem! - I rode it to the Garage to get it looked at and en-route it came back to life!
Give it a try! - the exact same thing happened to my mate (also owns a curvy!) but be patient i was going for a good 10 minutes before she sprang back to life! |
