bike dies when hard braking?

[Kwakki Si]

Hi peeps,

if i have to slam on the brakes and come to a stop sharpish the bike cuts out, standard braking is fine, any ideas apart from braking earlier :p

I have had CV carbs cause this if the choke is stuck on a bit, at a guess the slides come down a bit and the mixture richens too much at that moment.

How's the fuelling generally?

If the plugs are black, the choke doesn't seem to work properly and it cuts out when you come to a stop I would be checking out the choke mechanism and carbs in general. Has it been messed with? Or stood a long time?

If the plugs had been in there 3 years, have you been remiss with other servicing? A clogged air filter will cause a rich mixture and other cocking around.

Don't go chasing down big problems - like anything involving removing the carbs - until you have eliminated the small ones. Service it, charge the battery, see if it starts to behave.
