Still Got A Misfire
Hi,
My bike is still misfiring every second or so. Carbs are balanced and cleaned, spark plugs are new and HT caps are clean. Any ideas what it could be???? Also, the idle shoots up to approx. 3000 revs when I put handle bars at full lock either way. Can't see anything catching...what do you think??? |

Don't know. I checked everything was routed correctly and can't see anything wrong.

Re: Still Got A Misfire
Can't help with the miss, if it goes away when the powers on then I'd leave it.
As for the full lock thing, have you adjusted the play in the cables properly? Loosening the cables a little so that the grip has 1/8" or so play in it usually gives enough room that it doesn't rev at full lock. Just give it a little play on the adjusters under the twistgrip.

Re: Still Got A Misfire
If you route it differently then it usually needs adjusting, 2 minutes to do though.
Does it misfire on the power or just at idle?

Re: Still Got A Misfire
99% on idle. Every now and again it'll pop when the power's on.

Re: Still Got A Misfire
Are your choke cables tight? and are the choke plungers seating okay?

All Normski said above and also check cable junction. The section housing the cables to the carbs breaks of easily and can mean one or both cables not seating properly the in splitter housing. Ben
