I did about 500km ride yesterday and was thinking this machine is really hauling when lo and behold she cut out at low reves.
F#$% any how she could ride at mid range half throttle,  as long as i never tryed to open her up, at slow speeds i had to keep rev  otherwise she died.
I have the uk rally raid kit so stripped her down and found a pin prik hole in the main fuel line where it unclips and bolts onto the carb thingie.
I replaced the small section of pipe and she starts and every thing BUT after 1 min of idling she cuts out, starts everytime but wont idle for more than a min, she ok if you hold throttle a bit, but to reset i need to idle for 15 min and she wont do it.! Getting frustrated now.
And hell stripping is a good thing because i found wires rubbing and coroding and many loose bolts.
Does she need a diagnostic machine to sort out ?
