How long should I let my bike warm up?
How long should you warm up a motorcycle? About one minute is plenty of time to allow the piston and other parts to gradually expand and ensure good oil circulation to the upper end.
Why is there no gas in my bike?
At times, fuel lines on bikes tend to dry out before cracking. Similarly, fuel filters might become plugged, making it difficult for them to allow enough (or any) gas to pass through.
When does a bike die after warming up?
Bike will start fine, then after warming up (usually 3-5 minutes or so), it starts to drop in idle speed, and will eventually die. Once it dies, it will not restart right away unless I open the throttle quite a bit. Best results are had by just waiting a few minutes, and then trying it again.
Why does my motorcycle engine stall when warm?
And the problem is often worse on a hot day. The dreaded stalling issue when the engine is warm is the most common idle problem and it is mostly related to the very lean air/fuel ratio on the modern fuel injected motorcycle engine. Why does my motorcycle stall at idle when the engine is warmed up and at operating temperature ? – Low compression.
Why does my bike not start when I give it throttle?
Check the carb diaphrams. If there is a slit of hole in the diaphram (s) the needle will not lift (giving it more fuel) when you roll on the throttle. Hold the diaphram up to a very bright light and look carefully. Also, if the air passages running up to the diaphram chamber are blocked, the slide will not lift.
Why does my bike bog down at a stop light?
Sign up in 3 seconds using Facebook, Gmail or an Email Address ! Idles fine, but bogs with throttle. This engine is nothing but trouble, I swear. A while back I had this same problem – riding the bike just fine, came to a stop light, and when I tried to pull away and give it some gas, it bogged down and barely sputtered along.

What to do if your bike Idles but bogs with throttle?
I will look during tomorrow times. If it idles fine but it bogs down with throttle, your high speed gas jet is probably clogged. Clean your carb and spray carb cleaner in all small passages, make sure air can flow through all ports no matter how small. Put it back together and it should run great.
What causes a bike to stall at idle?
The slightest air leak would upset idle mixture and cause stalling or high idle speed that cannot be adjusted with the throttle stop screw. I’d look at some simple stuff first, like the spark plug – which might fire OK at idle, but misfires under throttle?
