bloody bike won't go

Post by ttc »

I think it's got the shits being left alone all the time :shock:

Its been running bad for ages, chugging and carrying on..

seems to have gotten worse recently

This morning I thought I'd take it to work and let the power commander guru look at it, it musn't have wanted to go as it won't go.

Fired, then stalled and simply won't restart
turns over fine, but not even trying to fire and i can smell fuel

Highly suspect of the p/c failing..

Opinions??

I'd guess battery first if it has been sitting. Injected bikes need full voltage. Too new for clogged injectors. Easy fix too. :)

Can you unplug the PC and just run it stock ? Check battery voltage as well........not much else I can think of if you rode it as recently as 1 week ago, and it was running then..........

I need help to do it, I've put the call out, hopefully that'll work or I'll just have to get it towed.

Be careful with RAACQ, anytohng like their Vic counterparts they probably have NFI how to tie a bike and often use the wheels or forks..
