Okay....so I have about 2002 miles on my MV F4, had it stored in climate controlled storage while I was overseas for 6 months....drained what gas I could (no Ethanol gas) treated the the remain gallon with Stabil.....
When I got back my battery is dead. No surprise...bought a new one, then filled the tank with fresh gas...but its almost like my idle lever doesnt have any effect when I start it.....it's always been cold natured...but idled PERFECT that web.wub...wub..wub sound until it gets the temp up.
It will stay running and warm up if I hold my finger down on the idle cold start lever...but if I walk away it rumbles and dies....does the same at a traffic light when I stop. No cool points on such a beautiful bike when a Ninja rolls up next to me!
I rode it tonight for about 30 miles with a couple blasts up to 100 to burn off the plugs or burn off any carbon??
Anybody else have this problem? I have Arrow Pipes on it..but it always idled perfect...that wub..wub..wub...wub...until it was warmed up, now I almost have to roll a little throttle on to keep it running. No flat spots on accelaration and it pulls like a freight train when I get on it......just hates to idle.!??????
Suggestions other than a mechanic?
