QuestionHi Mike,My question ( I think applies to any bike with carburettor's)
I didnt ride my 2000 R6 for 6 days and left it in the cold garage, then when the ice had thawed I started it and it sounded a bit groggy so i let it warm up for 10 minutes.
when I started riding it, it had a very noticeable drop in power in any gear and it was struggling to get up the revs, also I thought a piston might have seized as it used to Whizzz along but now it rumbles almost like my friends V twin.
Sorry It is not about a harley and I have made no changes to the bike I just put it in the garage how it was, It still starts up and runs but it's really worrying. by the way, the bike is restricted to 33hp by 4 washer rings in the carbs (i'm 18)
Your help is much appreciated!
AnswerSorry to say, but I am not going to be able to help you. I don't even know what a R6 is let alone how to work on them. You have to many electronics on there for me to be any help
Good luck and happy riding
Mike
I see you gave me a poor rating, even though my profile stated that I know nothing about bikes other than harleys and in my answer i told you that I know nothing about R6's. All motors, with carbs, are not made the same as well as motorcycles. I am sure you didn't ask somebody in the lawn mower or airplane category how to fix your bike. They still have motors with carbs! You wouldn't ask your dentist to repair your broken leg. After all, he is a doctor! By the way, carburetor in not spelled carbuettor.
Merry Christmas
Mike
