Ok i just got my new plates for my bike and i decided to put em on. after i put them on i started my bike up. the weird thing is once i started it the bike sounded totally different than it ever has and sorta sounded like a buell and i figured maybe the exhaust was loose so i tightned the exhaust and started it again. when i started it the second time the bike now doesnt even wanna go past 1000 rpm and it wont go any higher just a sort of low idle. Help me! i dont know whats goin on

 

New plates???

 

license plates..lol
but i also thought it might have been the amount of gas because there isnt a whole lot in the tank...but would a limited amount of gas make the bike sound totally diff?

 

Nah it's definetly related to the new plates....

WTF???

Sorry but.. there could be so many differant reasons... little more info,..

 

ook lol
when i started the bike if made a really loud back fire...now i just checked and the bike doesnt even want to start
what kinda info. do you need? lol

 

The F3??

 

i know what ur talking about...it will go away!

 

theres probly a bit of water in ur engine..

 

really? lol or are u just messin with me
my dad is on his way home...he's gonna think i F****D the bike up how long do u think it will take for it to go away?

 

yes the F3.
would a bit of water in the engine make the bike sound totally diff?
about an hr or so ago when i came home from school i started the bike up and revved it a lil hard maybe at 5k rpm. could that be to blame?

 

well i had the weird noise few times..i just go for a 5 min ride and turn it off..then a bit later i turn it on and it stops..if ur bike wont start turn your idle up a bit and see if it starts...

 

i might jump start the battery it seems to be dying...when i try to start the bike you can hear the "kick" sorta faiding

 

careful jumping it if ur using a car.. can fry the electrical system easily.

 

the only major thing i have to blame is revving it when it was just getting warmed up..
how could water have gotten into the engine?

 

u can get a $18 charger from walmart..everyone should have one...whats the point for waiting for it to warm up if ur going to rev it and ways,dose not sound healthy to me..good luck

 

battery is lowwww, bike is running of stator only... thats your problem

 

My buddies gixxer600 was doing this for a while until it wouldnt start anymore. At first it was just backfiring, and wouldnt rev past a certain point, or it would want to die when you revved it, then it was hard to start, then it wouldnt start.....I finally got around to working on it. Dumped all the old gas out, put new gas in it, changed the spark plugs, and put a little gas in the carbs(that was his idea ) , she started right up and runs good now...hope that helps

 

i had the exact same thing happen to me. charge your battery. the f4i did the same ****. i just let it trickle charge all day and put it back in. havent had a problem since.

 

Battery... listen to wheeliest...

And Beto your not talking about my gixxer so who's was that?

 

i dont think a bike charges @ idle, so either charge your battery all the way up, or buy a new one. That should be the first step.
