Hello guys, need some assistance as to what I am having a problem with.
2010 s1k with 4000 miles.
Bike is used for track.
2 weeks ago I decided to start the bike up just to have it run. It was pretty cold, maybe about 35 degrees. Upon start up, it struggled a little but eventually fired up. (looks like my maintainer is not working properly).
I let it warm up for a little and decide to give it a few small revs, nothing serious. All the sudden I start hearing a weird grind noise (not sure how to explain this) when revving past 3000 rpm.
Let it idle for a little more to warm up, try it again, still does it.
the 3rd rev, engine shuts down. Now I'm thinking, crap what did I do.
Well started it back up to make sure, no problems, idles smoothly. But not revving this time.
Changed the oil in November and cleaned the airfilter. I'm running motul 300v. Started it up in December without any problems.
Now 2 weeks before this problem occurred, I added fuel stabilizer. Could this be causing me any problems?
Yesterday, changed oil. checked the drain plug, no terrible shavings shown.
Removed and cleaned all spark plugs.
Fire bike up, no problem at idle.
Rev the bike up, same problem again. But now I have another strange noise come up. This sounds like a car which has a squeaky belt on start up.
where can I start the troubleshooting? would the fuel with stabile cause me any problems?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
