  • Bike is missing on acceleration

    Hello all...I have a 94 Kat and it seems to have some sort of vaccum leak or jet problem because it stumbles on acceleration...Also at a stop the idle is either really low or it just stalls out...I originally thought is was a combo of plugs/plug wires but I am thinknig vaccum now...If anyone has had similar trouble and knows what my next step should be i would greatly appreciate it...Oh and also it only seems to stumble badly once the bike has warmed up and I am out on the road...Like I said just a constant throttle and I can hear it missing and feel the hesitation...Thanks again

    use wd 40 to check for a air leak and clean and sync carbs if that might be the issue.

      I did have the carbs done recently which cost me a pretty penny...So I don't think it is carb related...Not really sure

        Turn the bike on, and spray WD-40 around the carb boots (the part that mounts from the carbs to the engine) if the engine speeds up, you have a vaccum leak there.

        Did this start since getting the carbs back? Maybe he missed putting a o-ring somewhere.

        Spray the wd-40 around the nipples and stuff of the carbs as well and get back to us.

          This may be a stupid question....is the gas that you're using ok? Has the bike sat for a while?

          Just thoughts.


          If we ever reach the point where we can't openly discuss riding bikes on acid without even a modicum of civility, then the terrorists have won.

              Did you choke it when trying to start it?

              Maybe your plugs are fouled.... Check your plugs again, make sure the choke is pulling...

                The typical test and check, plugs, battery voltage, regulator output and resistance, stator output, coil primary and secondary output and last but not least, get a manual.
