Spitting/Stalling when cold - new problem
My bike has run great for the first 4k miles.
It's now almost 5 months old with 4400 miles.
For about the last 400 miles (2 tanks of gas), it spits then stalls almost every time i take off after starting the motor. I have to tach it high and slip the clutch when leaving from a stop until about the first 5miles or so. After stalling, it wont start for about 30-45 seconds just cranks, smells flooded.
Anyhow, I intend to take it to the dealer, but I thought it might just be bad gas. I tried a different station than the normal one I use.
No change. Once warmed up, it runs fine.
Of course it sounds like the injector problem, but since it ran fine for 4k miles does this make sense? Anything I should check before losing my commute vehicle for a couple days?
Thanks,
Oh, it's still stock drivetrain down to the factory pipes.
