    XTZ660 cuts out when warm and won't restart

    in Yamaha Workshop

    Posted

    My first post - so hello everyone!

    I have a 1993 XTZ660 Tenere which is in great condition and has done 25K miles. I have a problem with it when it is warm. After 5 or 6 miles of running when its warmed up, if I stop, the revs and take my hand off the throttle, the revs immediately drop to zero, the bike cuts out and it won't restart until it has cooled down a bit. This happens whenever it is warmed up. Its not running hot. Its had a new battery, spark plug (gap checked), valve clearances checked, mixture and idle checked and its STILL has this problem.

    Any ideas? Could it be some kind of electrical issue? I am desperate! This is a lovely bike and great fun to ride but right now anything over 5 miles is impossible.

    Cheers.

    Yamaha Aerox 50cc running troubles PLEASE HELP!!

    Hi Guys!

    History of bike..

    Ok basically, I bought my aerox a few months back with a de-restriction and it hit around 45 mph, i then decided to put a new £120 sports exaust on it and changed the rollers, for about a month it ran smoothly,with the exaust the bike could now hit 60-65 mph.

    Problem now..

    Basically it accelerates to 20mph, slowly hits around 35-40mph and after about 10 mins (only if the wind is behind me or downhill) i manage to hit 42mph, if it manages to hit this it will go straight around to 60-65mph if not it will run at around 40ish until i need to stop, I have taken it to a garage and he has fiddled with the petrol to oil ratio and cleaned the carb etc.. but cant find the problem...

    So my question is anyone had simular problems or know what it is this would be massivly appreciated if you knew.

    Extra info..

    -It accelrates really fast from about 5-15

    -The drive belt is fine

    -Only got 3k on the clock

    - When it manage to get to the 42, it suddenly rapidily accelerates straight round and will continue to acceleate as long as im going above 42.

    PLEASE guys i really need answers my local mechanic is baffled and i need this to run fine!!

    Thankkkks alot.
