Did you pull apart your Carby???

My 88 seemed to do this Before I got my TB Carby!!!

 

[crim 87]

read the tech threads in the how to section for tuning and cleaning carbies... That's why they're in there... to show you how to maintain your bike...

 

[crim 87]

ok will do ive only ridden it like 4 times though

ok will do ive only ridden it like 4 times though

why do people always say that?
Oh it's brand new I don't need to do my valve clearance or tune the carby or pump up my tires, tension the chain, adjust the clutch etc.

 

[thump*140]

4 times or no times, the bike will still need set up, and initial maintenance during the first couple of rides... did you get the bike new or 2nd hand? did you change the oil, loctite everything that needed it before riding it the first time?

does it do the cough and splutter in the higher gears?
If it only does it in first and second, i'd say your hitting redline...

 

[crim 87]

yeah i have done the oil and loctite everything and all of that when i first bought it. and yeah i bought it new , im not sure if it does it in the higher gears haven't been able to get it right out into 3 and 4th where i live.
