the problem continued today. no water just a tiny amount of mud.
the bike started and ran properly for 3 x 25 minute laps. however whenever i stopped the bike at the end of the lap it would be a ******* to start.
it then started stalling while at tickover. this could be offset by raising the idle so that when it had one of it's moments it would keep going. all it would do occasionally is miss a beat which she has done for as long as i can remember.
eventually on lap 5 i locked everything up to avoid a rider i'd been running with all day (No. 101) and would it start again? WIF!!!!
when it did get going again it was fine and it only stalled once more whilst racing so only twice in total!
but it seems the idle and restart are the problem at present. could be carb but you know, this has been going on too long to be muck in the carb: a problem i've rarely experienced.
