Motorcycle Repair: 2008 Yamaha Silverado 1100, cylinder fuel, injector cleaner


Question
I own a 2008 Yamaha Siverado 1100, 2 cylinder, fuel injected, 5 speed transmission, had 3900 miles on it, completely stock. After storing it for 2 months it ran poorly when I started it. The front cylinder remained cold for about 5 minutes and then started to fire. It gradually ran better so I took it out and rode it. It ran excellent but now will not idle. I drained the gas and replaced with fresh, also added an ounce of B&G injector cleaner, drove it 50 miles but still will not idle, any idea's, thanks Jim.

Answer
Jim, You are on the right track. Also try 1/2 bottle of Lucas fuel injector in the tank and put in 4 new spark plugs. The stock plugs should be NGK brand the plug is a DPR-7EA9. If you go down 1 number like a DPR-6EA it will be hotter. Run this tank out then put the other 1/2 of the bottle in and fresh fuel and run it again see if this helps.
