    Not running on all cyclinders or carbs prob?

    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.
