Why does my DS shutoff
#1
Why is my DS shutting off on me?
Here is what happened: I was riding ***** to the wall down the rode about 3min. and it started to sputter when I pulled in the clutch, but if I hit the gas it would stop sputtering, but if I left off the throttle for a few seconds it shut-down, so I pulled over and tried starting it.....no luck. Then I pulled the choke out 1 click and it started right up, I left it choked for about a minute, and then turned the choke off. I had already been riding for about an hour and a half, and it ran fine for the rest of the day. It has happened twice before that.
What is causing this???
Thanx for the help

HEY KODIAK you'll need to do some testing but i have seen many case when running ***** to the wall for long periods that the gas cap can not supply enough air to compensate for for consumption and cause a back up on fuel[prevention vented cap]and also on real good runners they have a miniscoule fuel outet you may have to drill your petcock jeff told me this one and it worked.later good luck hope this helps

If you have an aftermarket CDI, chances are you pinched off the stock breather hose when outting it on. I did on mine. it is a clear little hose that runs down that side. I would check that as well.
When drilling the petcock, did that help with the top end? It seems mine gets a tad week on the top.
