Hey guys. Got my 850t back together, but having a running issue with it:
Fill tank up. Left petcock on only due to crossover. Take for a short spin, and return and everything is good so it seems. Next day, colder morning. Hooked up to batter tender as it seems it didn't quite want to turnover. waited. Starts right up again and I warm it up before departure. get on bike and head a mile down the road and it wants to stall out. I pull over and turn the rh petcock on as it appeared starved for gas (don't know why as I have a full tank). After a few cranks before depleting the battery, it starts up again. At next traffic light, acts like it wants to stall but doesn't. I turn around and head back, giving it throttle and all seems good. Turn into my street and it wants to die out but doesn't after I give it a quick throttle.
Couple things to note:
1) Stock carbs rebuilt and cleaned - all new parts to spec
2) New electrical system (stock) - charge light works properly and volts increase upon higher rpm
3) Tested petcocks with running water to make sure the on, off and reserve were working properly before install
This bike has been rebuilt from top to bottom.
I asm puzzled. The carbs are balanced and set up per spec and seems to start right up. I am guessing it is starving for gas over it being an elecrical issue. It is like the bike is running on reserve on one side, runs out and I turn the other side on and it does the same thing. But also not sure why it wants to stall out when slowing down at light or making a turn. Any suggestions? :?:
