Hi all -
My 2004 Breva 750 sat in the garage for the last two years. Fired it up once last summer rode around the block without any problems and thats it. Last week I finally got around to replacing the battery and firing it up again. I added a couple gallons of fuel (it was basically dry) and then proceeded to start. Flipped the kill switch and saw the efi light turn on and heard the fuel pump. I pressed the ignition and it starts for a brief second but wont stay running, no matter how much throttle I give. In fact the only way to get any ignition at all is to flip the kill switch back to off and then on again. Same results repeated over and over. I finally gave up and took it to the top of a hill and got it going from a rolling start. But no matter how much I ride it around the neighborhood as soon as I let the rpm's get too low or try to idle in neutral it dies. Even after riding for a solid 10 mins sometimes giving full throttle without any performance problems, if the rpms goes too low or gets anywhere close to idle it stalls, and if i try to fire it up while at a stop it will fire for a second and then immediately stall again. Any thoughts or suggestions... my tech experience is basically nill but I'm hoping to get my hands a little dirty before deciding to make the 1.5 hr drive to the nearest shop.
