Hi All
my first post for help here hope you guys can help
im in UK
i just purchase a gsx600 f 92' that has been made into a trike ( i dont have a bike license, this is as close as my mrs will let me get to having a real bike).
anyway this thing has been standing for a couple of years. the tank was totally fubar so i replaced that. cleaned the carbs out.
i could not get the jet out thats under the rubber bung but i shot the crap out that with carb cleaner and air and a soak, put it all back together changed the plugs and cleaned the screw end of the ht plugs as they looked tarnished.
any way apart from the exhaust blowing and the front brakes seized it starts and run-ish.
after a few mins of working okish for somthing that needs a good tune up it the throttle acts wierd almost like its got no fuel. by this is mean 1 minute you twist the throttle and the bike responds and revs up and the revs fall away as it should however after 10 minutes of running you twist the throttle and theres no engine change or revv up its like you never twisted the throttle. the revs stay idle, almost like its flooding but theres is no strong fuel smell.
if i shut it down then start it back up its ok again..
i have not removed the plugs on the a/f screws yet and i have not balanced the carbs yet, i hope to do more investigation this week , wife permitting and all that.
thanks all
