It's not electrical as we are all having the same issue, with only having intermittent it's difficult to pin point, it's a case where I'll have to take the tank off and look deep into the fuel vacuum pipes, the fuel pump is only doing with it was intended for so I can't see it been that, the tank vacuume seems unlikely as some have taken gasket off and still doing it, so when I get the bike back I'll have a look into this more.

Just a thought..maybe partial fuel starvation..are you all going fast then shut throtle and it stalls but recovers quickly ...not having a carb i dont know how much fuel is in system when primed...maybe the vacum pipe is.too small or nipped...any other wk 400 models have the problem that share fuel pumps or injectors...

Id.try and isolatenthe common problem you all havin and what speed throttle use..does your bikes have a cable or electric.throotle position sensor to injector?

Love a.conundrum

Hard luck about the finger graham. I only vaguely know Paul but he mentioned that his morrocco trip had been good apart from someone damaging there fingers.
I've lost my little finger, it gives me a story to tell about the holiday, it never affected Paul's or the others as I sorted myself out and traveled 560 km on my own to the hospital.
with a damaged hand as I didn't want to spoil the other lads holidays, I did get the impression at the end of the holiday that they weren't happy that I had the accident,
I don't no how well you no this lad I would say I would never travel with this lad again, I'll leave it at that.

Very narrow road came a sharp hare-pin to find a van heading towards me, diverted inside to miss the van only to just catch the back edge side of the van, if I went the other side of van 3000 feet drop, it was all quite slow mo, as the me and the van was only doin about 12 mph,

I still had a great time riding, morocco what a great country well worth a visit,

Looks a good deal, my bike will be a bit cheaper than that with some great additional extras included in the price.
