Default Re: Bent Banana - The SV resurrection.

guuuys, bikes ****ing me off again. From cold it has a weak tick (stalled changing down a gear 1 minute into a ride earlier) so I have to hold it on revs until I've done about 3-5 miles. Then when it's up to temperature it'll run alright but holds it's revs about the 2k mark. I've had problems like this before but a bit more extreme which was the choke seizing. When it's warm it'll tick about 1.5 k but if I give it a quick rev it'll go up drop to 2k hold it there for a couple of seconds and then go back to tick. Could this mean the carbs need balancing? Or is it more likely to be an airleak? (Could the exhaust blowing a little bit cause this?) or could the chokes have seized again already?! (bearing in mind I unseized the plungers on friday.) spring in the plungers gone a bit weak?
