JUst recently bought the buell blast 2000 and worked great for 100kms until suddenly will travelling 80km/s the bike stalled, the engine still sounded like it was running but when the clutch was pulled in it wasn;t running. Tried Fuel system cleaner and worked for 50kms but then it started doing it again. Took it to the dealership and they found nothing but then when i tried it again it continued to stall once or twice in a short ride. Doesn't happen in the stop go but at a constant high speed. Please help!!! |

Next time it happens, loosen the gas cap and see if the problem goes away. If it does, the vent hose for the tank is clogged. It's not a terriably uncommon problem. |

Air flushed the vent hose and it continues to sputter when idling, it back fires and still feels weak. Any suggestions?? |

Yes, there is a rubber manifold connector which attaches the carb to the manifold. It is known to develop cracks which will cause the symtoms you describe. Try replacing that. Its a $3 part. If your dealer doesn't have one, go to the sponsors section of this board and post in the "dave I need it now thread."
I should have suggest that first. I misread your first post and thought the problem only happened when crusing down the highway. I see now that you didn't say that. |
