Drive lumpy at slow speed
Posted: Wed Mar 21, 2012 3:57 pm
I work on a base where the fastest you can go is 15mph! Been no problem in the past but last 2 months i have found hat the bike is becoming lumpy at that speed.
I can't seem to get a happy balance on the throttle to cruse at lower than 20mph even off base when filtering.
It feels like I am gunning the throttle then shutting it off in quick succession. While its doing this the engine sounds like its running smooth.
I have adjusted the chain
Adjusted the throttle to remove any play in the cable
Fitted new Cush drives
These did improve it slightly but it still does it.
I will be putting carb cleaner (in the fuel tank stuff) thru this weekend to see if that helps but I doubt it.
Am looking to replace the Cush drives as well... When I find a set cheap enough.
Any further ideas?
