I'm slowly getting to know the new to me 2008 FE 450 and in general I am happy with it. It is the first Berg that I have had and the first euro dirt bike so there is a lot to pick up and I have been trawling through the Doc which is huge compared to what it looks like at first glance.
One of the issues I have had is that the bike seemed to stall a bit easy but was otherwise running OK. it was also popping from the exhaust on the over run but I thought this may be normal.
I lowered the gearing and thought that that would help but it still has not been right.
I read a few threads and had already set the valves so was confident this was right and was just starting to get the carb off when I found my carb boot exactly the same as this one on another thread. It certainly makes the problem solving a lot simpler and i can;t wait to try it again when it is fixed.
What is the likely cause of this?
