Howdy y'all-
I ordered a new cap and rotor from MG Cycle the other day.
Figured I needed new ones anyway as I'd never changed the
old ones from when I got the bike. Put them on tonight
and fired her up. I'll be damned if she didn't just purr
away rather that the usual "cold natured backfiring and
spitting and me gassing the throttle for 5 minutes befor I
can ride routine". I only used the choke for 10 seconds
or so then rode away. Guess there's a lot to be said for
a new cap and rotor.
If you have a cold natured bike, try a new cap and
rotor...it may help.
