Hmmm my bike is acting strangely. It died three times while moving off at the lights; twice leaving me stranded in middle of the road trying to restart it! Not much fun.

 

The bike would'nt rev - low/mid/full throttle was barely 1k RPM and after about 10 seconds it spluttered and died. After starting it again, it had no power for about 10-15 seconds then it started running ok again. This happened three times;

pretty much the same every time. I had to make sure the bike could rev up past 4k before disengaging the clutch in case it did it again. On the highway it ran fine; this only happened at the lights. I had done 170km since the last fill so I though it should be half full; I switched to reserve anyhow and it happened once more. A visit to a petrol station only took 8 litres to fill it; so it was not out of juice.

The bike was serviced at ASPhoon last week (when I bought it) - but something is definitely still wrong - has anyone experienced this before?

 

thanks....

Did experience it before juz after servicing..but it was the spark plug cap doesn't sit in.juz press down firmly the spark plug cap and it works 4 me.. ..u can juz counter check whether it was the correct spark plug type..another thing is could be ur carburetor dirty, filter clogged or idle too low...anyway good luck bro...keep us update 'what went wrong with your bike'...

Hi…all Vara bros, Peace…

 

 

 

 

obverse >> … since bike was recently serviced, left one possibility. idling speed too low. noticed how it rev at neutral? ideally at 1.5k rpm range thereabout. take notice too on the first electric start every time before moving off. if its three attempts to engine start, better check on the battery. else, as mentioned earlier, its just a bike characteristic. got to learn her tantrums this few months as the new owner. good luck.

 

 

weird >> … without inner liner, its half the size(in height). shouldn’t cost more than $110. ....ehhm...teddys, poems and rear shots are fine, but.. mountains? please give me a break.. don’t want another “broke back” episode

 

 

NewKid >> .. here’s the addy; Boutique Showroom . 89, Short Street,

#01-11, Golden Wall Centre. opposite Shell petro kiosk cant miss it.

bro.. i experienced this before well about 4-5 times. but this is not a very big problem. think it's something to do when overflow i guess. when the petrol "wet" the spark plug too much causing some ignition problems i guess. but after you managed to get the rev over 4k the bike should be up and running. btw, dropped your bike before? problems like this are usually experienced when bike is dropped.

Alamak bro embrace.. think yr front brake did not light up due to connection problem like fuse burst, wire overheat. remember u say u did re-wiring that sunday, and did u connect the main socket to the brake socket? if u did joint the socket already, think should be the problem with the fuse or the wire overheat. Please check....

[Aikon]

Hi…all Vara bros, Peace…

 

 

Embrace >> have a look at these.. (1) the front brake lever, there’s a micro switch underneath it, with two black & white wires. probably one of it is disconnected. or (2) pry open the tail light casing, molten bulb socket (silverish plastic) could’ve cause a small gap inbetween them copper plates. adjust or fill up the gap accordingly... good luck.

 

 

flareon1982 >> for your shopping needs. here you GO (by courtesy of fellow forummers)
