Bought a brand new 2003 TL1000R. After break-in period I was hammering it up a hill also( running it up toward redline before shifts) when it started running like garbage. It also was only running on the front cylinder. Limped back to dealer and they claimed I knocked out crank sensor. Got it back a week later and it ran ok but mechanic said they retarded the timing a little bit to try and keep that from happening again but it definitely didn`t run as crisp as before. Put 13,000 miles on it then sold it. Temperamental bike.
Very rarely do you knock out a crank sensor because you're running it hard. And then actually retarding the timing sounds like BS to me because in order to hard the timing you have to reset the cams into tl1000s. They didn't have points or a timing deal to retard the timing like that. I personally think they just screwed up what they did and couldn't figure out how to make it run better. But yes they are definitely temperamental bikes for sure.
The infamous sv325 😭 im still watching as i type this but if its the front cylinder thats dead its pretty common on these bikes due to no protection on the front spark plug galley so if you hit a puddle boom your front cylinder is gone till you clean out the drain hole and replace the plug… if you have no spark in either plug its the computer under the rear tail thats shot…. I currently have my engine removed to rebuild/replace the transmission im hoping to find a bent shift fork when i split the cases 🤞🏾 id love to see you rebuild one of these also my bike has 10k miles for an 02 just rode her hard and puter away wet now she just rattles in 1st as i let off the clutch and she doesn’t pick up speed whats so ever I’ve replaced the whole clutch assembly and its still doing the same thing
Yeah unfortunately I don't have these in the shop very often with transmission issues. I've done a top end I think on a 05 at one point in time and a time-lapse video that was a 2 mm over kit on a 05 sv650 unfortunately I don't have anything to be splitting the cases in half for transmission work on the sv. It's pretty crazy to hear that yours does not pick up speed even after changing all the clutch components out. Yeah definitely could be transmission related for sure. But also double check compression and leak down to make sure the valves aren't sticking open or that the Pistons don't have a little bit of blow by
@@limitlesspowersportsservic3394just finished a complete engine rebuild fixed the issue but now its bogging down on acceleration so i have the carbs apart
Hi mate. Just bought an SV650s yesterday with the same issues. Great video, thanks for the info, I’ll be checking the fuel pump first job. Cheers 👍
Good Video
