Title: rough engine after 5 weeks?
Post by: Frost on June 22, 2004, 07:09:44 AM
i haven't rode or even start my bike for 5 weeks now...and went for a ride yesturday...the bike feels so much different...it feels heavier and just more rough in general...

should i put carb cleaner in it or should i just run a couple tank of gas to smoothin things out?

Could be that you haven't rode it in a while, but carb cleaner and fresh gas wouldn't hurt, either.
