RON04 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 OK so I picked up my first shee today it has a problem I can not figure out it will idle for about 3 sec than die or you can give it just a little gas bring the rpms up a little and it will cut out like some one is turning the key off than back on real fast but when you wind it up just a little about mid range its fine just down low its stock just has fmf pipes any one had this problem thanks Quote
some87 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 spark plugs or bad gas??? i dont know much about them but thats what i would check for Quote
shee4speed Posted October 23, 2008 Report Posted October 23, 2008 (edited) what year is the bike?I say you pull the airfilter and give it a good cleaning.Pull the carbs and do the same thing.Go ahead and replace the plugs.Put in some new gas and don't forget the oil.Try those things and check back. Probably want to check the compression also. Edited October 23, 2008 by shee4speed Quote

Just clean the carbs out good and go from there. More than likely just your pilot circuit...(pilot jets) Edited October 23, 2008 by bansheejoel Quote
