Hey all!
I just got an old 1983 XS400R (the Seca version of the XS400) which is loads of fun!
Everything on it is great, but I had just one gripe while riding it home. Whenever I would stop at a light and sit in idle for a while, then try to get going (open the throttle) the bike would kind of sputter and stay at idle speed for a second and then rev up. However, if I just let the engine sit at idle for a few seconds, it would rev just fine.
Any ideas? I was thinking it might be low on oil. Its in a storage garage at the moment so I can't check it, but I can check everything tomorrow morning.
Thanks!
