|  Suzuki Katana NOT running right - HELP PLEAS!!
bike has always since day 1 (last month) not had quick response to throttle. for 2 weeks i rode it to work, doing about avg of 85mph to work, and hitting 125 every once in a while just for the speed. last friday, at 120, the bike lost throttle. i could turn the throttle a 1/4th of the way, any more then that, it acted like it didn't have enough gas. it did this twice, WITHOUT shutting off, and then the rest of the ride was fine. i changed the fuel filter (NOT the suzuki kind, but a generic brand for atvs, etc. INLINE) which could be the problem, and i also changed the spark plugs. the bike broke down on sunday, as it completely would NOT start, and acted like it was not getting any gas what-so-ever. i ran it just now testing it out, took a bit of starts, but got it running, and it's not responding well, and in second gear, it kind of "jumps" like it might be running out of fuel (it's done this since day 1 as well) any would would be GREATLY appreciate, thank you. |
