Ok,

My bike was fine in the morning. Then it started running sluggishly like when you forget to check the petrol tank and you begin running out of petrol .

The sound the bike makes is similar. It sounds like a vtwin and it jerks around trying to move.

I'm guessing its a carb problem? or spark plugs may be fouled?.

Cheers

My vfr had a fucked rubber boot between teh carb and the head.

once i fixed that it ran on 4 sweet.

does using the choke make a difference to its running?

also check the bolts that hold your coils on.

The plugs are fine.

I'll try with the choke tomorrow I guess.

Someone suggest it might be a broken valve?.


Anyone know a bike shop/ mechanic that has loaner bikes.
