Hi all. Well here are the symptoms. It was only happening in first and second gear under hard excelaration but now it's happening at constant revs. It's like its fuel starved/air starved missing etc. The noise I hear on slight over run sound like air escaping every beat of the engine. After the bike ...

Hi guys.

Please help.

It seems to be getting worse. It happend last night in 3/4th too. Felt like it was only running on one cylinder and some strange noises coming from over run. Any ideas?

I am stuck

Thanks for the help and scan there.

I just checked my breather and it all seems fine. I also was giving it some high revs in others gears for long periods today and it was fine. Only seems to be in first gear.

The clutch seems fine. No juddering.

Kind of lost now

Certainly up to 7k revs. I try not to go above that.

I was thinking it was something to do with fuel but she runs fine up to 7k in any other gear.

Hi all. Some of you may remember that my storm was completely submerged in water 6 months ago but all sorted now. I still seem to have a problem when excelerating hard in first gear. It's like the bike is missing or not getting enough fuel. Every other gear is fine. Just first gear has this problem ...

Hi again.

That's my storm back to normal now after it's swimming lesson.

Next think I am going to do is ther manual CCT mod. Please can anyone advise where is best to buy a pair as I don't want to use any cheapo ones that may break.

Thanks in advance.

John

Cheers for the info.

Is there any way to test if it's the sensor?

We'll guys I have an update. Bikes is going great now. Took it for a good long spin today and very happy with it. Only thing left not working it the speedo. Odometer is working and speedo seems to have power but not working right. On the motor way today it was reading 120mph and I was only doing 60 ...

Thanks guys. Looks like I will be doing the cct mod once I have sorted out all my other issues first. Still can't believe a storm can be completely submerged for 7 hours and with a bit of tlc will fire up again. Also gents my local honda dealer seems a bit of a rob job. Can anyone recommend a good ...

What an idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had connected up the vacume hose wrong. Now it is running great. Went for my first spin today. Thanks for all your help. Will do another oil change tomorrow and try and dry out the clocks. Rev counter is working but the speedo isn't. Any ideas? Thanks again guys. Also ...

Thanks guys. I will go and check the hoses tomorrow first thing as I am starting to doubt myself now. Are there 4 or 5 hoses that go into the tank? I have the two large ones that go to the carbs and two small ones. I thought one was the vacume and one the breather, but then surely there should be ...

Actually guys I forgot to add that I can rev it as soon as it starts but after a few seconds I can't get revs.

Must be a fuel problem surely??????

Hi guys. Thanks for the reply. Yes I cleaned the carbs and and they locked good along with the jet. Don't think I can put the vac hose on wrong as it has a different connection. It does geek like it's not getting enough fuel though. If I take the vac pipe off and blow down it,it's not blocked. Any ...

Thanks for the replies guys. Yes I have changed the oil and filter three times and it's now as good as new. The first two changes you could still see water in the oil. Now it stays fresh though. Air filter is new. Plugs were good. Cleaned them and sprayed ht leads with wd40. I was amazed when it ...

Hi all. I am new to this forum so please go easy on me.. Well 3 weeks ago the underground car park where I keep my bike flooded. My storm was completely under fresh, but dirty water for 7 hours. I have got the bike running but I can't seem to get it to rev. It's a little better at reving with the ...
