Hi, the bike has been stored in my shed for over two months now, and I decided to start it up the other day and blow the cobwebs out, so to speak (Not going for a ride, just on the stand in garden)
The buggar wouldn't start, normally it goes first prod, did fire a couple of times and stopped again, couldn't understand what was wrong, so put battery back on charge and put bike back in shed.
Next day put battery back on, hit the starter button, bike turned over a few times, fired and stopped, after a few tries I got it to run, but it was running very rough and I was having to keep the revs up to keep it running. Ran it for about 10 mins and eventually got a smooth tick over.
Have started it up again today and have had the same problem, misfiring and running rough.
Question. Has anyone else had a similar problem?
Is it because it's so cold?
Is it the damp.
I have had plugs out and checked gaps
Can't remember my last CB being like this
But this one goes well when it's warm. Wish it was warmer, then I would give it some wellie up the road.
