Okay the other night i pulled up to the kabab shop and when i hit the kill swith my bike took about 20 seconds to slowly come to a stop.
So started her back up . . Did it again.
When cold it happens and when it is hot.
There is no breaks i the wire, the switch is fine etc etc
It did it today and yesterday, not so bad today, killed in about 12 seconds.
It used to just die straight away ?

Wired init ??

Is it a two stroke? If so it may need a de-coke. Red hot carbon act's like a glow plug and allows the fuel/air to ignite just like a spark plug does.

Have you checked to make sure the switch is breaking the circuit? Do you have an alarm or anything connected to the coils?

Does it do the same with turning the ignition off? Kill switches are only supposed to be used to turn the engine off quickly in an emergency.




. . . . . You haven't filled up with diesel have you? Mr. Green

Haha Laughing
Its all good now, thanks for the help though.
There is a small peice of metal that when the switch is flicked pushes down and breaks the circuit.
This is broken Thumbs Down
Ill sort a new one out at some point, it not a major problem though to be fair, it means replacing the whole right hand side switch gear.
Leave it for now
