Riding along at a reasonable speed (45 or so) in 4th when the bike began to run a little rough, it got worse and I pushed the choke down and it seemed to pick back up, pulled the choke off and it went fine for a few more miles when it started doing the same thing. This time it got worse and worse and finally quit. No fuel light, only 15 miles since the last fill-up but I hit the reserve button anyway....depressed the starter and she took right off again.
Stopped at the gas station, looked in the tank and there was all kinds of gas so I continued on my way. Every few miles it would act up, I'd turn it on reserve and it would smooth back out.
I got my errand done and returned home, it seemed to be running ok but when I pulled up to the garage the tach & temp gauge weren't working. Shut it off, started right back up and the tach and temp gauge were working again.
Wondering if this is tied to the reserve switch, or sending unit in the tank....or something else entirely.
Seems like I read a post where someone had the same symptoms but no idea who or when it was.....anyone got any ideas?
Thanks.
