No, did not try the kick stand switch. How done bypass it?
The bike still pulls hard like day 1 in every gear. It just seems to act up after I've been at 4500 rpms for a time and then I try to go faster.
I will try the kick stand bypass this weekend.
Well i got to figure out some more of this issue on my ride home. no cars/traffic on the freeway. It seems if i hold 4500 rpms im fine. i can hold it for ever. the issue starts once i get to about 5k rpms. If i hold 5k for more than 10 secs, thats when the bogging happens. i was able to...
**update**
Wish I could say the problem went away but it hasnt.
Since my last post I've changed out the fuel filter (took the tank off, took out pump), put new gas with seafoam in it, cleaned the plugs, cleaned the air filter, cleaned out the throttle bodies and double checked my map on...
Yeah, I'll prob throw some seafoam.
At any other speed besides mentioned above I've had no issues. I do think it's happened more frequently the more gas there is in the tank.
Well, the last 2 days i road to work. besides it happening once on my way to work (when i started this thread) but on my way home and yesterday i had no issues. the only thing thats alittle "off" is my mpg. usually its around 43 but its now around 40-41. Also, i noticed around 70-75 mph, the...
Now i think about it, it may be the same 2 month old gas. Maybe even even month old. I road home from work and have less than a gal in it so it'll prob just take the whole fuel system apart this weekend apart and check it out
Does it run good otherwise and make good power?
Yeah, runs as smooth as day 1.
When it acts up does it run rough?
No, when it happens it slows me down by a few (5 at most) mph but then it goes right back up to 70-75
Does it respond to throttle when it bogs down?
Same as above. I can have my...
This problem just recently started out of the blue but I also have not been riding much. Anywho, this issue only starts when I'm going to work (20 miles 1 way). I haven't gone any long rides so I can't say on that. The "issue" is if I'm holding a speed (between 70-75, 6th gear about 4300...
Well after not really riding the bike in close to 2 years, I will be getting back on it. mostly using it as a commuter. (15 mpg *truck* vs 42 mpg *bike* ). Hopefully this gets be back in the mood to ride again. Only reason I really stopped riding alot was cause all my friends had kids and /...
I have 63k on my '01 that I got in 05 with 26xx miles on it. Only problem I had was the gen 1 starter gear "issue". I replaced it with a new gear and its been fine ever since.
As someone who has JUST fixed this issue a week or 2 ago, and have dealt with this issue for probably a year, I will say it is 99.9999% the starter clutch. (mine is a 2001 model).
there is a difference between 99-02 and 03-07. I got 1 off ebay that said it fits 99-07. and it technically did...
Install was simple. Didnt use the special tool. just an air gun. The clutch I got was a newer onee (has the notch in it). but i just swapped the new clutch with the factory ('01) gear and put it back together. fired it up 3 times before i buttoned it up and it fired each time. put it back...
