'98 Kat 750 mysteriously stopped running
Hello all of you who know more than me about the workings of Kats.
I rode to work today and when I was pulling into the parking lot my bike died because the primary fuel line was under fed. I put the bike in on reserve and started it up again with no problem and rode over to park the bike. At the end of the day I started the bike up and was letting it warm up. As I was putting on my gear the bike started to idle lower and lower until it died. I tried to start it up but the bike would not start. At times it sounded like it wanted to but it wouldn't. I even tried push starting the bike but it was having nothing of it.
Thinking the bike was flooded I took the bike apart and checked the spark plugs, all of them were dry. I have switched from PRIME to Reserve with no luck in getting the bike to start up. I recently just had my carbs vacuum synced after I cleaned them and on the weekend I went on a long ride with zero problems.
I hope someone can shed some light on this issue as I am at a loss and getting frustrated with this mystery as it makes no sense at all. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
