Hello - my first post, and my first Transalp! Transalp 650 2004 only 9k miles! I spent a month doing a relatively hi-speed commute, but have recently moved to the city and am doing a lot more stop start work. I find that as soon as the bike warms up, it really does not like to accelerate from...

Hi Guys, I am trying to help out a mate that has issues with his RD04. Here are the symptoms. The bike stutters when going over 5000rpm. We have checked everything. New fuel pump, air filter and plugs. Yesterday we took carbs from another RD04 to test and the problem persists, we swopped the...

First ride today on my newly acquired XR400 When I got it a couple of weeks ago, the PO had made a sleeved insert with a long tube and a diffuser to slip inside the rear silencer core Thinking it was slightly too loud for my needs for UK trails, I re-fitted the Honda OEM baffle to quieten it...

Happy New Year to all. Been having this strange electrical thing going on. Start bike in morning and allow to warm up. Start riding with headlight on, next thing temp gauge needle almost falls off the face of the dial, bike stutters and dies. After that bike drains battery trying to start...

The 700 has started "baulking" when opening the throttle from low rev's. Starts fine from cold but after about 15 minutes it stutters when opening the throttle to overtake. If I keep the rev's above 3000 no problem but when ticking over at junctions it stops. So have come to the conclusion it's...

Hi Everyone, I am now considering that the real fix for my AT may be dropping a lit match in the fuel tank! Still having the problem I posted before despite trying all sorts. Starts beautifully, idles perfectly, but wont go over 4500 revs. As soon as it hits there, it stutters and farts, and...

Hi Some advise please if possible. I've had my 88 NX650 on the road for 5 months without a hitch. During the last week it started to hesitate during acceleration. This Friday i took the carb of and cleaned it out. I still have the fault, and wondered if you could steer me in the right...

I have no manual for the bike yet and not sure what carburettors, fuel system my 200 xrv 750 AT runs on. Problem one: On 2000 RPM when I open throttle the bike stutters and feels like it's going to stall. I normally gear one down and then accelarate which seems to work better. Now does the AT...
