There is on problem that i cant get my head around.
When i first start engine (cold start) for a minute or so i cant touch throtthle if i run throtthle it will shoke and shuts down.
After a minut its ok and working fine.
If some rewaco owner reads this pleas let me know do you have same problem or you dont have it.
I think that it is somekind on sensor but witch one i to not know.
Because of that i try to learn about its custom ECU allsou, do get it diagnosted.
Sounds like an error with Automatic Choke. Mine starts no bother and idles rich/slightly fast for about 30-45 sec then slows to normal idle.
I can rev it though without cutting out, just choose not to if I can to let all get warmer before driving off.

It seems todaly weird because it has only 5 sensors: T-map sensor, Crankshaft sensor, Throttle potentiometer and Lambda Sensor, water temp sensor.
T-map and Throttle potentiometer i have allready replayst. Only possible by my eyes is water temp sensor?
I try to check that and next is diagnostic ecu(What seems to be dangerouse if you do no know what are you doing..

Is the mixture set correctly?

Just seems symptomatic of rich and with choke closed it is just too rich to run.

Hi

I don't suppose you remember what torque settings you used for the front fork assembly ?

I need the torque settings for all fork bolts
Aluminium block to stem top and bottom
Aluminium block to fork top and bottom
