The bike would cut out upon trying to start up in the morning. At t.lights the bike would cut out.. Also it BACK FIRES..! I took it to a garage and they said the throttle cable around the wheel was rusty..Charged £70 and this still back fires..The garage said the bike now needs a new cam chain as its a 2001 and is on its way out thats why its timing is out..Any clues to what the problem is ??
when i put mine on the stand after a long journey (25mins) as soon as i put it on the stand it will conk out and at the lights it will conk out??
any ideas of how to remove the exhaust bracket as well?? cheers
