June 26, 20197 yr I'm looking at a Keihin carbed, Rotax engine Easy for a mate, Ive got it started and running and fixed a number of other problems, it has been stood for the last 10 years but is in remarkably good condition. The bike is rideable at low revs but as soon as you open it up it just will not rev, Ive cleaned out the carbs and changed the plug, compression is okay and getting better the more it is run, its sounds lean, not boggy to me, any ideas ? Ignition timing perhaps??

July 3, 20197 yr Since it seems in good shape look to things that would cause poor fuel flow from sitting. The three that come to mind are: clogged carb vent; crap in the petcock; crap in the tank filter that leads to the petcock.
