Intermittent power loss on my 96 viffer?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I have had my 1996 VFR for a few years now - great bike. One of many VFR/generations over the years that I have owned and loved.

Bike ran great with basic routine maintenance until recently. Last fall it started periodically losing power (felt like it was running on 2 cylinders) - then it would snap back to full power.

Over the winter, I cleaned the tank and changed the fuel and air filter. The problem still persists. I am thinking it is a fuelling or carb issue. 

Anyone have an insight or experience with this?

 

thx

Ignition issue? My ZX600A would do that on occasion. It was the CDI. I kept a spare with me at all times. Not surprising with 25+ year old electronics. 

 

First thing to check is all the wiring, and connections to make sure it's not something simple like that.
