This has happened to me on two separate occasions probably a month apart. I was wotting it down a flat street when all of a sudden I start losing power and when I came to a complete stop the engine just dies. Any attempts of trying to start it back up doesn't work. The starter does turn the engine freely, just no combustion I checked he fuel pump and can see file flowing to the carb freely. Gas tank is still half full. Carb was cleaned only a few days ago. No debris in float boat or clogging the jets. Vacuum lines are fine and not clogged or loose. No leaks either, as evident in me being able to ride after letting the bike rest a few minutes. After chilling for about 5 min, I can start the bike up again with no problems and I can still ride as if everything is fine. Nothing else changed. I have no idea what the problem is. There are other days where I am wotting all over my city for around 1 hr and have no problems whatsoever. This is a rare occurrence but it has happened twice so far. Is it a faulty CDI? Am I overheating? Though I rode it much harder the day before without problems. I have no clue. But as of now, when the bike is idling at a standstill, the idle sort of dips every couple of seconds, like it's going to die, but immediately returns to regular idling. It doesn't feel like it's idling as smooth as before. Thanks for any help!
