I am Carbon
shade tree mechanic
well to start I have 80SG seems to be all stock. I just cleaned the carbs and addjusted and synced them. And it Idles and runs good so I took it for the first ride today and the bike ran very well for about four miles then it started to spit and spudder and loose power. The plugs didn't knock like it was hot. I don,t think it was hot. Any way I pulled of the road and sat for about 3 minutes I started It up and drove it back home. And the same thing happened just before I got home spittin and spudderin in four miles . So I'm back in the garage and I'm thinkin maybe something is getting hot in the electrical system and faultering. Oh by the way when I checked the temp on the jugs after 1 1/2 munutes after I got in garage the temps were 256degF right jug and 255degF left jug I know that the temp will rise after shutting down the engine But I don't know if that is to much of a rise in temp so it may be hot What do you think I should check first. any help will be good and thanks ,Ed
