New Bike, Max Throttle, Dropping Power


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello Bikers,


I'm new to bikes in general, I just bought an old Honda Daelim 150cc and when I give it full throttle(and the engine reaches a certain rpm) it begins to 'chug' and lose power(similar to when your running out of petrol). Any ideas what might be causing it?


Cheers

or it could just of reached its maximum power capacity and that will also cause it to chug and sound funny if its 4 stroke it could be getting valve bounce

Spark plug? Pull it and ground it out make sure your getting a nice blue spark. Check air filter isnt blocked it may not be getting required air up in rev range. If all ok then maybe carbs off and clean them
