Hi, my bike has developed a new problem. After spending over 500 quid on it to get it roadworthy when it had its 1st MOT, now i am having problem with it.
Basically when i start the bike it seems to be okay for few seconds but then it dies unless I will rev it! Same problem when on traffic lights, if i wont rev it it will die Sad

any ideas what could be up with it?
Thanks for all suggestions Wink

Pilot jet blocked?
Float height too low?
Fouled spark plug?
