Author Message   Fstevez Posted on Tuesday, April 05, 2011 - 10:56 pm:        ok...so im still having trouble with my bike, choke open, everythings great...when i hit the throttle, bike bogs and shuts off...push the choke in, bike shuts off...any ideas as to what it may be? i just replaced the intake seals to see if that would help , but no luck...thanks.   Littlebuggles Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 12:23 am:        Sounds like it's starving for fuel. Did you clean out the carb? Was there another thread regarding your bike's issues?   Two_seasons Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 12:27 am:        +1 on fuel not getting past the intake valves. Filter? Junk in tank blocking line?   Littlebuggles Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 12:31 am:        S1's don't have a fuel filter, unless you're talking about the plastic screen in the tank. Suggest removing the petcock and inspecting the screen, but also clean up the petcock too while you're at it. Might also replace your fuel tank breather line too make sure your fuel is flowing freely(not creating vacuum in the tank).

Either that, or let it warm up longer   Fstevez Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 10:24 am:        thanx guys!!!! gonna go work on that now... will update!!!   Fstevez Posted on Wednesday, April 06, 2011 - 03:18 pm:        im now a happy camper!!! found it to be the gas tank breather valve...it was clogged or something, wouldnt let the tank breathe...replaced it(without the ball) with one from a spare tank i have...fired it up, cracked the throttle, and it roared...it does pop every now and then when i let off the throttle, but i believe it to be normal...Right? thanx again BADWEBBERS!!!
