Default Re: Out of ideas on this......help please.

Hi... Having only bought the bike late last year and not having much of a history to go on, (none actually). The bike could have stood for a while, so when I get back the carbs are going to have to come off and have a good clean....The previous owner (bit of a ass really) he didn't even send the change of ownership to the DVLA. More importantly, he didn't care for the bike much at all and it was in a right mess when I became it's owner so I have had to spend most of my free time fixing it up...Well worth it though, it is a nice bike when running well...

The clutch was wired so as not to have to pull the lever to start it....I put that back to normal when I replaced the lever and bracket with the correct one for the bike.

I have checked and cleaned every single plug or switch that I could find on the bike, also inspected all the wireing that can be found, all ok there.

The one and only thing I could find as a visible fault was that the airbox was separated from the front carb, I have to assume that it was this way upon purcahse. I have re-possitioned it correctly to the carb and used a can of STP spray carb cleaner down them....Think they're gona have to come off and be given a thourough cleaning....

As I said...have replaced the coils.... it's better but the problem is still there...

If I don't reply now for a week...don't think I've lost heart ....I'm just away for a drink or two

Speak to you all soon!!!!
