New to the group, been hanging out reading a lot but first post.
I am having a problem similar to BC's post here about stalling but a little different.
Was out riding yesterday and griz ran great for the first 2 hours or so and then it started to stall out at idle. Did not think anything of it, got it started back up after a minute and was on my way. We broke for lunch and it was fine once we started back up for about 10 minutes and then it started to backfire real bad and would lose power and then stall out. Put a new plug in and checked the air filter and that was fine. Also checked and there is fuel getting into the carb. If we stopped for about 5 minutes the griz would fire backup and run for about 5 mintues and then it would lose power and stall out. First time griz has acted up, just flipped 1000 miles. Bought the bike used, I have put about 250 miles on it. Not sure if the valves were every adjusted or not.
I did put some fuel in the griz before I left out of a can that was sitting for about 2 - 3 months or so. I was thinking about draining all of the fuel and see if that corrects the problem. If that does not do it should I get the valves adjusted?
thanks!
