hiccup

For some time, I have noticed that my 2005 Vara has a dangerous and annoying habit of suddenly stalling, usually after the bike has coasted to a halt or had been trickling on next to no throttle. When I give it juice, the bike just stalls.... happily, years of 2 stroke riding means I am like...

Hi there. This is my first post since joining and I wish I had had found the time earlier to introduce myself and what I'm up to, before begging your help with a problem. But that wasn't to be. I really hope to be able to share good things about our trip soon and to be feeling good about...

I'm selling my RD07 @ to Aztec at the weekend but couldn't resist doing my usual thorough weekly clean of the bike so removed the fairing panels and tank a couple of nights back to clean the bike up - okay maybe I do have O.C.D., but it's no laughing matter :) Anyway, I obviously didn't have my...

After reading a plethora of plunger plague threads - 90% say the problem was worse on the front cylinder - I pulled mine and tried to figure out what was wrong. My bike ran fine, which the exception of one stumble and a hiccup over the past month, but was struggling to get more than 39mpg. My...

Well, I disconnected everything, drained the oil/coolant etc etc etc My new best mate Joe arrived and we set to sorting the engine mounts etc. It all went quite smoothly and the engine left the frame without any skinned knuckles. Got the new engine ready, did the valves, they were pretty much...

Hi has anyone ever changed the fuel cut off relay. I have feelling that the one on my RD04 has an intermittent fault, when travelling for long distances. I have fitted a new Facet Fuel pump as my OEM pump left this world. When doing short trips not a hiccup, but when going on longdistance the...

My old lass, (1997, RD-07a), has started to develop a small hiccup whilst trying to start, wondered if I'm missing anything obvious....:confused: Placing key in ignition and turning on, no oil, neutral or sidestand lights appear, (ie ignition I presume), nor does the tripmeter display come up...

She's here, much heralded and long awaited and worth every nanosecond it took to arrive. As soon as I entered the showroom I fell in love.....(and the bike's not bad to look at either!:D) Directly in front of me, standing quietly was a vision, ready, willing and able, 'dressed to the nines (in...

If it wasn't for the great advice on this web site I'd have been in a right pickle this morning.... Riding to work as normal, when the @ gave a bit of a hiccup... then a spluttter and then the engine died... pulled the clutch and coasted to a stop... Tried to restart.. nothing.. pulled choke...

Last weekend I went for a nice trip out to the Black Mountains.:) During the ride the bike kept doing what I can only really describe as a hiccup. It seemed that some times when I closed the throttle (say to go round a corner) then accelerate again it would lose all power as the revs built back...

After two hours of perspiration and swearing the michelins were fitted. What a difference. I now have a bike that will go almost anywhere. the rating for mud and soft was very .underrated. The test ride did all types of conditions without a hiccup.Also has anyone done much to reduce overall...

:?: Hello folks, had the faulty regulator replaced on my AT and it charges ok now but seems to have developed some other faults, when I’m decelerating the bike now backfires occasionally and I have also noticed when its idling there is sometimes a small hesitation - a sort of hiccup!. These...
