I doubt im the only one on this, but whenever im starting to run low on gas, the bike stumbles. I need to quickly, and i stress quickly, switch it to reserve, while down shifting.
This way, the motor keeps spinning (bad- no oil pressure), and it will keep pumping gas to the carbs till the bowls fill back up.
Other wise, if i pull over and switch it to reserve, i need to crank and crank and crank untill the lines and bowls fill up with gas again..
Well today, my gloves would not let me switch to reserve fast enough, and i needed to pull over. I kept cranking for a while, and then my battery died.
No luck push starting it. but luckly, a guy let me use his charger. (I push started it for so long, I ended up in some neighborhood).
I dont ever want this to happen again.. Any ideas? I was thinking about wiring the fuel pump to a switch in parrallel, so the ecu can still controll it, but i can flip the switch and let the carbs fill back up with gas.
Thoughts?
