2007 XTX Cut out on my way home
Hey
Was riding home from and was doing about 30 suddenly the bike chugged then cut out could get it start again ........ Also took a handful of extra turns to get it started at the start of the journey ? Managed to get a friend to get jump cables and managed to get it started to get it home but started chugging at the bottom of my street got it going again tho felt pretty lumpy for the last 100 yards ? I'm think battery is screwed ? |

Battery wont make a lot of difference unless completely flat? Then does it matter while running?
I had this happen on the first ride, pretty sensitive to a dirty spark plug..?

Phoned my mechanic and he said it sounds like damp ether in the coil or the ht lead :/ and to say oil on it to see if it makes it any better ..... And if not to book it in and they will have a look

I wouldn't put oil on it though. Give it a spray of WD40 or similar to displace any moisture. Better still, dry it all out and coat the joints with silicone grease to seal it against future water ingress (if that's what the problem is). |
