Hi, I might be being paranoid while I get used to the bike and it's habits etc.
But this morning, when I got her out, I set the choke, prodded the starter button and she fired up OK sat idling for a few seconds, then it sounded like it wanted to stall from 2k odd rpm!
At the same time as it hesitated there was that noise of when the starter gear takes - if you know what I mean.
While I think about it, the other day when I fired it after work, I didn't have the choke on so much so it was on a lower fast idle but it made that noise and did stall!
Is this anything to do with the sprag? or could it be something else to do with the starter?
Bloody thing does make me nervous still, but I blame the bad biking press in the past!
Bike has done 10k only, but my bro had to have the sprag done on his 1000R on a lower mileage, although I have heard this can be due to people starting the bike with throttle and the revs getting up before the sprag has dis-engaged properly?
