gixermike Posted December 4 Posted December 4 i have an RF900 and an old problem has resurfaced when the engine is cold it fires up and ticks over ok but as soon as it starts to get warm it wont tick over unless i wind the tick over up to about 1500rpm then it will tick over it has had new coils six months ago and new plugs at the same time when it is not ticking over very well and i move off it revs cleanly all the way through the rev range during the summer it behaved and ticked over fine i have treated it to a new gel battery even though the old battery was fine and started it fine any ideas or anyone had this issue thank you Quote
Rene EFE Posted December 6 Posted December 6 Start with cleaning the carbs, fuelfilter, etc; anything fuel-related. Quote
gixermike Posted December 6 Author Posted December 6 the carbs have been off a month or so ago and all seemed clean but will do it again cheers Quote
McLean Racing Posted December 6 Posted December 6 (edited) tight valve clearances? RF's should tick over around 1300rpm when hot Edited December 6 by McLean Racing Quote
