Idle Dies Down

<< < (6/6)

Torch654:
Just a quick question I get some small surges under these conditions (hi speed to chopped throttle) The bike only accelerates for one "pop" and not very often. The odd thing is my jetting is a Little rich. I was thinking a worn slide? Its not a big deal I was just looking for opinions.

GDubb:
The surging on the 500 is normal... you can search for posts on this subject as there are a ton.

Torch654:
Yes I have been reading......but for some it seems to go away when jetted rich. I am jetted rich and it is still doing it, so I was wondering if my thoughts on a worn slide hold water. :)

hughes:
Maybe carboned up power valves(sticking)mine is a little rich but pusled and surge a little bit but after I cleaned and re-lubed the valves problem solved.
