painkiller Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I have taken it into multiple garages but issue persists.The bike dies in motion sometimes, its fine but then slows itself down and you cant rev it just continues to fall until stalls out. After this happens will not start for some time, random time. Battery is all good fully charged or slightly drained due to use, alternator is working fine, side stand kill switch all good, fuel pump changed, fuel filter new, new throttle cable. To start with I thought it was because a previous owner put the wrong tip plugs in but still died. The only advice not tried yet is to remove the alarm. Any idea's?

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 That certainly does sound like fuel starvation. Has someone had the tank off and trapped or linked a fuel line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painkiller Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 I may have to flush the whole fuel system see if it stops dying on me, I did pay to have everything serviced and flushed but I guess tank is not part of the service.

onesea Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 If its none of the above Ignition pick up? Timing sensor?The sensor that detects the the rotation of the engine to tim the sparks...On my Trophy they are prone to working when cold then as the engine gets hot it stops, after about 20 ish minutes, it cools down does its job properly and you can continue. Symptoms sound similar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painkiller Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 ignition pick up makes sense, I will have to take it out for a long spin tomorrow and see what happens. Pack my meter and see if the ohms fall. Thanks that does make sense. Goes to show you take it to garages and to a kwaka workshop that find nothing.

rennie Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 carb icing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painkiller Posted February 4, 2017 Author Share Posted February 4, 2017 I have come the conclusion it is not heat related, riding for a couple of hours bars went up but nothing happened. Must be a fuel system issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
