    06 SPORTY CUTS OUT ??

    I have done alot of work on this bike & the only problem I have is if you give it gas to fast it will cut out until you let off on the gas & reapply the gas very slowly

    other than that it works perfect no backfire nothing.

    just waiting at a stop light & the light goes green if you give it to much gas it will stop until you let off the gas can anyone help me?

    (I have replaced all the vacum & gas lines & carb lines with S.S. Lines & replaced the intake manfold seals & gas petcokt, spark plugs) No help

    thanks

    Scott,

     Sounds like an accelerator pump problem. Either set too low (Super E), or not working. If it's a CV carb, you may have a bad diaphram/pump.

    Then it must be bad?? because I made no changes to the settings on the C.V. Carb at all.

    Thanks

    Scott

    P.S. --I hope I don't have to take the tank off again ?

    THANKS

    Scott,

     Sometimes you can just loosen the front, and remove the rear mount bolt on the tank, and swing it up enough to get the diaphram out.

    Scott,

     If the diaphram is leaking, it's not picking the needle up to deliver fuel.

    THE FIX WAS ---------------

      I had those spark plug covers (which goes ove the head bolts) it turns out that I cut the boots about 3/16 to short. This caused the spark plugs to short out

    so only 1 cyclender was working at a time.

     I fixed the gap from the boot to the cover & it runs like a champ. ! I AM BACK ON THE RODE

    THANKS TO ALL

    Scott
