125fightingmachine Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 So got the bike up and running yesterday. Went to go start her up today and she was ticking over fine.. Rolled her out the garage door (rear first) and she started revving real high on her own so I thought right okay, must have a carb/air filter problem but then rollled her back in and she starts ticking over normally again? I did the same thing several times with different time gaps but every time as soon as the bike comes out of the shade, revvs like hell?! Any suggestions? 1
125fightingmachine Posted June 13, 2016 Author Posted June 13, 2016 Nah she's been totally blacked out mate
125fightingmachine Posted June 13, 2016 Author Posted June 13, 2016 Thanks for the reply but the throttle snaps shut just like it should..
blackhat250 Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Ah. twist bars from side to side tho,, see if she revs 2
Moderator Airhead Posted June 13, 2016 Moderator Posted June 13, 2016 well there's got to be a reason...does the drive slope at all? 1
Noise Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 Your twisting the throttle when your wheeling her out The throttle cable is routed wrong and is snagging round the head stock Floats in the bowl adjusted and have become too sensitive. Have you recently done any work to her? or had someone work on it? if so what was done? 1
Malleus Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 Maybe.. don't wheel it out - start it outside ..................................................or only drive at night.............................. no idea 2
125fightingmachine Posted June 15, 2016 Author Posted June 15, 2016 Cheers for all the replies! problem solved - the throttle cable adjuster nut near the carburetor was too loose, gave her a tighten and off we go! Unfortunately I've got another wee issue I'll post in yamabyys 1

Unfortunately I've got another wee issue I'll post in yamabyys Hey well done fella, shame no one here suggested an issue with the throttle cable...like you say though it would stump almost everyone 3
Ttaskmaster Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Kinda disappointed in lack of stumping guarantee - Throttle cable issues would have been my second thought, with not realising you're twisting the throttle being the first... but only because I've done that myself. 2
