KeithyP Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) Hi all, I posted this in another thread but mislabelled it, so I'm redoing it here. I have recently bought a 2006 Aussie e. Stock as far as I can tell but with a full yosh. I have also added an acerbic tank, frame savers, guards etc. Pic included. Prior to this it has been running great, but with the odd splutter when cold. I was riding around in the bush, not going hard but there was a lot of little trees on the track and I was jumping over them. I ended up between a few fallen trees that I decided I couldn't get over, so with the bike still running in neutral I lent it over and pivoted it on the stand to go back the way I came. When I went to accelerate and take off it backfired and died and that is how it has been ever since. It idles ok, but if I add throttle it does these huge backfires, massive fiery backfires, it also mis fires and dies. It doesn't get enough power to even crawl, at the time I was at the top of a big hill and had to coast the whole way down to get recovered in a trailer. Since that I have replaced the plug, pulled the carby, cleaned it out, blew out all the jets (I figured I had blocked a jet with crap), the carby seems to work ok. I have also checked the vacuum hose from the ce for leaks, tried running it with the air filter out. Nothing seems to make any difference. Have I missed something? What else could it be? Thanks in advance for your help. Keith. Edited January 24, 2016 by KeithyP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeithyP Posted January 24, 2016 I have not, is that an issue that would just happen instantly, as in mid ride? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hinksy My Ride Posted January 24, 2016 Keithy , if you have checked the carb and everything is how it should be ( clean , no blocked jets , needle still clipped in place ) Then I would try testing the stator . One symptom of a failing stator is not running under a load . Check out the FAQ section and have a read on how to test it , greg 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeithyP Posted January 24, 2016 Thanks Greg, I have come across that info, and will test today. Fingers crossed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeithyP Posted February 28, 2016 Today I replaced the stator and now she runs like a dream! Cheers, Keith. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
