All -- I did some work on my 1992 K100RS a cpl weeks ago. To include: new clutch/spline lube; cam chain followers; new plugs; new bmw plug wires; new fuel filter and tank full lines; sync of throttle bodies; new fluids throughout; new coolant; flushed brake fluid; set engine timing.
The cycle started ok to begin -- brought it home and took it for a longer ride -- as 15-20 miles went by it began to run rough -- adding throttle was met with a slight delay and some surging -- made it home and tried to start it today -- it will not start -- it catches for a cpl beats and then dies -- if I try to add throttle while it is struggling to run the throttle addition immediately kills the engine.
I am lost as to where to go from here and would appreciate any guidance your collective wisdom might offer....
Also -- any good older K bike mechanics in the Indianapolis, IN area you might refer me to...
Thanks for any suggestions,
KJO/Kevin
