Kmanlyst Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Went to go for a ride today started the bike and everything was fine then the bike dies so I went to start it again and it started ran to 2k rpm then died and continued to do this. I can get it to start but will not go past 2k. I have no garage to take it apart and look and even if I did I have no clue where to begin.

just_some_dude Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 I'm not familiar with the bike, but is the tank vent kinked? Is there an idle screw you could have bumped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just_some_dude Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Is it easy to get to the spark plug on that bike?We can check plugs to see if it is getting fuel. If the plugs are wet. If they are then likely fuel is making it to the cylinders.Need to rule some things out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmanlyst Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 they are a bit of a pain to get to. I am uploading a video to youtube I will link it as soon as it is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmanlyst Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kp0POhLl5t8so here is the issue, and I did not touch the throttle at all just the choke and you see it will start with choke on but not off. I may run to wally world and pick up some seafoam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jester3681 Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Flooded? I know (and this is completely different, I realize that) our small displacement Nissans had trouble flooding, especially when the temperature was cold. I hate to take the wrath of the more knowledgeable MC techs here, but have you tried starting it with the throttle open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Can you shut the fuel off and drain the carb bowls give them some light taps on the side refill and then try again, maybe a float sticking:dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
