Runs on three after sitting for a while
« on: April 04, 2015, 06:19:41 PM »
Hi all,

My bike doesn't get used very often, and I'm finding that when I start it after it's been sat in the garage for a few weeks that one cylinder (no. 2) doesn't fire regularly until the bike's been running for a while.  Once it's all warmed up everything seems fine.  And ideas what might be causing it?

Cheers,

Paul

Check plug leads and dose the fuel with redex carb cleaner as a start.
Got a 500/4 with rust and a sidecar and loadsa bits. nice and original and been round the clock
