Default K3 Stalling problem help

Hi All

Had my k3 for just under 2 weeks now due to the bad weather I've only ridden it twice, on both occasions the bike has struggled to start. once it does the tick over is very lumpy!! it's also stalled one me a few time when I've dipped the clutch approaching a junction's.

I've just had new plugs, oil & filter change over the weekend, and the TB's balanced today, the plugs was black as when they where taken out which the guy told me could be down to the TB unbalanced, which where quite a way out apparently.

Can anyone suggest/recommend anything else that could be coursing the problem, not sure where else to start looking.

Thanks in advance

yes turn your tickover up to 1300rpm

you might also want to check how healthy your battery is, FI bikes dont like goosed battery's

Hi Bibio

Thanks for the info I was going to adjust my tickover next, do I do it hot or cold?

Will double check the battery as well
