K75 has up till now, run well but i stopped for lunch the other day, and about 1km after restarting, it started to run very roughly and wouldn't rev out, although ocassionally it would clear and rev hard.
I went back later in the day and picked it up and checked the fuel supply to the rail and that there was petrol going back into the tank. Conclusion - not a faulty fuel pressure regulator (and fuel tank very clean).
Started the bike up and it ran normally but 3kms down the road, it started dying again. Would only rev to about 2000 rpm and behaviour was not unlike that of the K100RS when the H E sensor failed in the heat. It's cool here at the moment so i don't think that is the problem. It's also not a tank vacuum problem.
It it Ok to assume that because, i have a fuel loop that the F P R cannot be the culprit?
I'm going to get a new set of injectors from the guy in Idaho but is there anything else worth checking in the meantime?
