neandethal Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Recently bought a 2013 EFI YBR125 and it seems to have a fault, but no error lights (The light does work on first turning of the key, so not a bulb issue). The bike starts first or second stab of the starter button and ticks over lovely and quiet, BUT is is really fluffy at picking up when cold and nearly stalls, so to be clear it doesn't increase revs cleanly, it has massive lag. Once it's ticked over for a few minutes it goes away and runs fine, and picks up cleanly. Air filter is spotless, plug looks OK if a little rich, has fuel. Is this "Normal" for cheap injected bikes, was expecting a nice clean pick up and pull away from the off?? Any advice/views greatly appreciated, as i have some long runs planned.

Moderator Cynic Posted June 12, 2020 Moderator Share Posted June 12, 2020 7 years old, I suppose the injector could do with a clean. There are a few people who have ridden a lot of miles on the lil ybr. So info should soon be forthcoming. Considering the epic your planning on I have to admit, I would have gone with an older bike with a carb. One can of bad fuel in some middle of nowhere hole and your stuck. With a carb you can fix it anywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Stick some V power in it and give it a damn good thrashing, Basil Fawlty style. It might just need a good clear out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
