bike dying and backfiring???

Post by jokerhd2001 » Sat Aug 09, 2008 5:51 am

I have an 07 KLR and it has been sitting for 5-6 days. It ran fine when I last ran it. It started up fine. As I was riding it appeared to accel fine, but when I would lay off the gas to come to a stop or shift, it would backfire and I would have to give it gas to keep running. It seemed to get worse in the 18 mile drive and now I am stuck at work. What do you think? Carb? (Seafoam) OR plugs or what? Thanks

Listers, I just saw this thread over at KLR650.net. Thought you may find it of interest since it involves one of our best. About the second page is an explanation of what happened. http://www.klr650.net/forums/showthread.php?t=49913 I know Mike will appreciate hearing from you sending good wishes.
