Title: L0 (2010) bike in black. Needs a new home
Post by: roganjoshing on May 01, 2021, 14:45:46

My 2010 650 has to go now to make space for new bike. Starts and idles but has what feels like fuel starvation issue though could be electric. Was very reliable until recently. Has two new ebc discs on front and new YSS shock (less than 300miles). New starter switch unit  heated grips. Happy to let go for peanuts if someone wants to collect it and has the time and wherewithal to diagnose the problem. 54k miles and in Frome, Somerset. Let me know if interested.

Sorry to hear of problems - good luck with sale  :thumb:
(I think I went through Frome on the way to Radstock a few weeks ago, lovely part of the world (started a new job and that's where their HQ is)).

"Starts and idles but has what feels like fuel starvation issue though could be electric. Was very reliable until recently"

Could be the fuel pump, collapsed fuel pipe or fuel filter. Whatever it is can be fixed.

But nonetheless a very good excuse for a new bike.  :auto-dirtbike:
Don't forget the pictures when you get it.

Good luck with the sale. :)

Check the fuel hose from the tank isn't "pinched". Good luck with the sale.

Thanks for all the help and messages.  Bike now in the local garage (very old fashioned place) to see if they can get it running properly again.  I'll post once I have more info.
