Finally sorted out my exhaust a week ago and its been running fine since apart from it was having problems from about third gear changing up since revs were at about 10k and would not go up. Figured out the front sprocket had an extra two teeth so need to go back to standard.

I went for a long ride yesterday with some mates and pulled up at home. When I went to start it again and pull away it was at about 3k revs and was crawling, barely at walking pace when using the throttle.

I checked the airbox and cleaned out jets on carb which seemed to be fine anyway and put it all back together today and I'm still having the same problem. Its now idling though but still only revving to about 3k.
Tomorrow i'll take off the exhaust and look through to see piston/piston ring to see if there's any damage to it.

Any other ideas/solutions to solving this problem guys?

Is it restricted or derestricted?

I believe its derestricted, I didnt see any restrictors and its going about 60 or so anyway.
Checked piston rings today and was 100 percent fine. Started it without the exhaust and seemed to have some power, didnt have it on long though obviously since the neighbours would murder me. I believe its something to do with this gianelli exhaust, is there anyway of unblocking it at all?

Cheers Rob, will buy some from the Chemist tomorrow hopefully.
Any idea why it would only just conk out now in one go though?
When taking the exhaust off it was full of gunk which wasn't there before and I have used the recommended amount of redex in the tank about one tank full ago.

B&Q do it, I de coked my Gpr exhaust couple years ago, mine did something similar to yours. It would randomly just stopp revving properly. As if it was fighting with itself. Was rideable, wouldnt go over about 4k revs and constantly died. Turned out the coil had packed in. Might be work checking.

Cheers guys very much appreciated, luckily I've got a spare cdi coil so will try that as well after de coking exhaust.

I managed to get caustic soda today and shoved about 4/5 litres in the exhaust to fill it and rinsed it out a few hours later to only get some slightly coloured liquid out.

I've now re attached the exhaust and still seem to be having issues and now I'm kind of stuck for ideas, anyone think they might know?

I left it in for about 4 hours (even though bottle said 30 minutes) and mixed 125g with 5 litres like it said on the bottle. Took about an hour to fill it up since the small pipe at the end trickles water through.

Just started it up via bump start since electric isn't working now (I raped the battery) and it goes about 1.5k revs and cuts out in less than 10 seconds each time since the throttle isn't responding at all unless I whack it on fully and quickly I can keep it going for a few more seconds but the revs aren't increasing when I do it.

Will get that done tomorrow then since I'll need to borrow a friends battery charger for that.

Already changed the spark plug over since the other one was pretty dam charred :L

check the rubber manifold between the carb and the engine very carefully, mine had a split in it. and had similair problems.

also, your knackered battery wont be doing much to help. its cdi ignition and needs a decent voltage from the battery to power the coil.


Will check the rubber now to look for any signs of disintegration and will try contacting my friends for battery charger shortly. Will attempt to fire it up in about an hour when most of my neighbours should be up to see if taking the airbox off makes it run any better.

it wont. unless of course your air filters knackered.

itl just make it louder.


I know it will make it louder but I'm just trying to rule out pretty much every possibility now

well, if your going to take it off (dunno if youve done it before, but it was a right bastard on my gpr) you may aswell take the carb out and make sure its not full of crap / water.


Taken it off many timse before with just my hands/ screw driver to lightly pry off the edges. Getting it off is easy, it's usually more of a pain getting the thing back on afterwards.
Already fully stripped down the carb since this problem occurred (was an excuse to check my jet sizes were standard which they were). Could undo the screw just under where the airbox goes on to the carb to drain out any excess in it I guess.

if youve already had it apart before, it should be ok.


id try it without the air box or silencer, leave the spanny on though.

when you checked the rings, was that by looking through the exhaust port? what was the rest of the piston like?


I've currently got the airbox and the silencer off, both of them off shouldnt be too bad? (only have silencer off since yesterday I flushed exhaust out and didnt want to have any water go into silencer wool).
Yes I checked them via the exhaust port and it was a solid silver ring which looked brand new/intact and the rest of the part that went up looked intact aswell.

Thought so, not up to all the slang for bikes yet still fairly new Wink

Just checked the big rubber hose going from carb to reeds and that seemed intact. Went to the top of my road and bump started it and it went to 1.5k revs each time and cut out. Let out a deep groan each time I tried it. Suppose i should but the airbox back on now.

I took off my petrol tap and tilted carb when throttle cable was out of carb and petrol was coming through both.

Just called up a semi local garage called revs where they have a pretty dam useful guy and they've said to now check compression and electrics with a voltage meter and also to check magneto, they said they just conk out over night so seems like the most logical problem now.
Being 16 and owning none of those semi specialist tools means I may have to end up pushing it about 2 miles to get it to the nearest bike place to do that for me Neutral

Wires seem to have had problems in the past but seems to be all in fine. Heres a couple of pictures which might help you more.
