    Fueling issues

    So a few weeks ago I was headed out to the trails when my '10 FE 570 started acting up. I tried to give a sharp throttle input at about 60mph and there was no response. The bike bogged down on me. Took it easy to the trailhead and that's where problems really started. In second/third, the...

    My 12 570 was running perfectly when at the start of one ride it kept stalling after blipping the throttle. It seemed okay most of the ride but at the end, when I went to pop the wheel up for a big log off idle it bogged down and died. I've had the injector and filter ultrasonically cleaned and...

    Splitstream and no more injector issues?

    2010 FE390 to date no injector issues and hoping to keep it that way. I am considering the Splitstream tank filter; the ad reads "Most fuel injector nozzles have 50 or 60 micron holes, so Splitstream used a very fine 25 micron mesh for their fuel filter bags, helping eliminate clogged fuel...
