January 25, 201115 yr Picked up my new 2011 250 sherco Saturday.Went to trial on Sunday after two laps had fuel problems bike would only run with choke on. Striped carb found milky sticky stuff in carb, drained tank and filter and found same stuff. Any ideas. Bike runs fine now.
January 25, 201115 yr should have taken it back to the dealer you got it from.thats what a warranty is for.willie.
January 26, 201115 yr You haven't been artificially inseminating it have you ? Nothing sounds artifical here! Sounds like he blew it all the way back to the gas tank! Double ck that fuel supply can! Oils can separate out in cold weather.
January 27, 201115 yr I had a similar problem with mine. It seems that they dont flush out the fuel tanks very well when they are made. If you have done that, clean out the carb as well, not forgetting to completly remove the air screw and check the seat. Last thing is replace the fuel filter, the standard item seems to do nothing. I use an item from a Kart supplier on ebay and they are cheap enough to replace about every 4 rides. Since doing all that I have had no problems with mine at all. Good luck
