Hi. New here. Loads of great information here ppl. Thanks a lot!
So, I bought mine used half a year ago (2014 orange/black model), I'm a new biker so I had little to compare it with. Whatever the case, the bike fits me pretty well and I really like it!
A few months ago and as I had to do a few minor repairs (broken turn signal, some missing nuts at the rear fender side application from a bad passenger seat fit up) the bike was left stored for 2 months and after fixing the above I decided to do an oil+new filter maintenance. Following the manual's instructions I drained it and poured *2 litters* of new 10w40 / jaso ma oil. Bike started normally but I noticed that if, say, after 1 minute of idling (choke closed by then) I opened the throttle so it will go BrrOOm, it will stall after I release the throttle. Bike didn't do this before.
After a little inspection I found out the oil level was above full (window completely covered) so I went and pored some on a pan till I could be certain it was slightly bellow the F mark. Tried to start again, no problems but the above symptom remained.
Thinking this would be an easy fix I though, maybe the spark plug got covered in oil or smth, so I went and replaced it with a new dpr8ea-9. This *almost* resolve the situation but it would still stall sometimes if I do the same. When it does happen it always happens in the same way:
start -> idling with choke open (20s) -> idling with choke halfway through (30s) -> idling with choke closed (1m) -> Sudden throttle opening by me (1s) -> throttle release (me again) -> bike back to idling for a fraction of a second -> bike stalls sometimes, if it doesn't stall it feels like its "right about to stall" for a fraction of a second (have seen the lights almost blink) but it will retake its normal idling.
One thing to note: The more I open the throttle in this sudden motion, the more likely the bike is to stall.
I'm attaching a pic of the replaced spark plug and from all I know it shows signs of a too rich condition (no oil though), but I'm not 100% if this is normal with this bike.
I'm thinking that maybe the revs are too low when idling or smth and that's why it stalls but it doesn't if I don't do the sudden "brooom" so I'm really not sure. Even if it was the case I don't have a tachometer to attach to it so I'm not sure how would I adjust this. So far I haven't made any adjustments to the idle speed. Also, I haven't take the bike out since I first parked it for repairs so I don't know whether not using it for 1-2 months can be the culprit some how.
Ideas? Solutions? I really need some help here
Thanks a lot!
