Ran into some issues with the bike this past weekend and I'm trying to figure out what the issue is.
Purchased used 10/13. Previous owner stated that he had the CA cycleworks fuel pump installed. Fresh tank of gas had just been installed. Headed to the first trail and was cruising at 60. Hit the throttle and the bike bogged down on me. Downshifted and tried it again... not much better throttle response. Got to the trail. Now I was down in 3rd/4th and the bike was backfiring whenever I tried to open the throttle, or cut throttle. Bike finally died. After sitting for a minute or two it would fire, but continued to have fuel delivery issues, more backfiring, eventually would die. This continued for a while til the batter died and I had to get a tow out to the top of the trailhead. Got a tow to a buddies, dumped fuel and added fresh fuel to eliminate bad gas. Same symptoms. Dumped a tbsp of gas into the throttle body and she ran smooth for a few seconds until it had fired off... bogged down and died. I don't know if the previous owner did anything with the filters. I'm thinking clogged fuel filter to start. What's the consensus? Should I pull the filter and fit in the 10 micron? Or should I just take out the inline filter and go with the CanAm filter?
Thanks in advance.
Garrett.
