"Spit sputter dead"
Well after 3 weeks with my SK2 everything seems fine except for now and again when ticking over and the normal short revs as you sit at a traffic light, it just "spit sputter dead" just like that and I have to start it again no problem.
 When I say now and again, I mean like 3 times in 3 weeks (800 mi) There are no mods to anything a stock setup and apart from that she runs sweat as a nut. Any clues?? Carbs?? |

Re: "Spit sputter dead"
How long ago were your carbs balanced?

Re: "Spit sputter dead"
I'm guessing idle speed to low, set it at 1200-1300 rpm. There's a knob on the left side of the frame. Twist that.

Re: "Spit sputter dead"
IIRC the service intervals for the SV are every 3500miles so it might be worth geting it serviced and checking the carbs.
